for people who want to generate the file list using a find(1)

+File list structure in memory
+
+ Rather than one big array, perhaps have a tree in memory mirroring
+ the directory tree.
+
+ This might make sorting much faster! (I'm not sure it's a big CPU
+ problem, mind you.)
+
+ It might also reduce memory use in storing repeated directory names
+ -- again I'm not sure this is a problem.
