  I'm not seeing an easy way to tell between a file and a directory.

  What is the final objective?

  If you iterate through the list returned by ListDir() you'll be able to see if an item contains sub items which would make it a directory. This method is not perfect as an empty directory would be identified as a file...

  Example

  for each item in DirList("/")
      if DirList(item).Count() > 0 then
          print item + " is a directory"
      else
          print item + " is a file or empty directory"
      end if
  end for
