I have written a file manager for Genode, so that could be useful if you don't want to use the VFS system. It's part of my work on a desktop environment, and it's not entirely complete, but it should be fairly usable still. If you want to use that as a starting point, here's a link: https://github.com/NobodyIII/genode-desktop-environment
Here's the specific file with the _dir() function: https://github.com/NobodyIII/genode-desktop-environment/blob/master/src/app/...

Hello Martijn,
The File_system client in the VFS library is the only example that I can think of for reading directory entries. I would recommend using the VFS library rather than using a File_system session directly, the library is easier to use and this would give you a lot more power for free, such as merging the same directory present in multiple File_system sessions.

Dear Genode community,
I’m looking for a way to list the files (nodes) in a directory using a
file system session. Amongst other, I studied the File_system::Session and file_system/utils.h but cannot find a hook to get started. I see that reading the directory nodes is supported -> this returns the Directory_entry struct with information about the directory itself, but not about the nodes the directory contains (right?). Is there a way retrieve the latter?
Any help is appreciated!
Met vriendelijke groet / kind regards,
Martijn Verschoor
