 115     wxDir is a portable equivalent of Unix open/read/closedir functions which
 116     allow enumerating of the files in a directory. wxDir allows to enumerate
 117     files as well as directories.
 118
 119     wxDir also provides a flexible way to enumerate files recursively using
 120     Traverse() or a simpler GetAllFiles() function.

 124     @code
 125     wxDir dir(wxGetCwd());

 128     {
