I need help to display (in reverse order) the most recent
directories that were in the working directory, in the shell I am working on. Thanks!

What operating sysem? What compiler?

If gcc/g++ for Linux or Windows:

check function scandir() (prototyped in <dirent.h>)

Regards,

Dave

Hey Dave,
The shell I am developing is on Linux. I don't think the scandir() would be what I need. I am trying to create a shell that would perform dir history command. Basically, the dir-history command should display the 12 most recent directories. I hope that was a clear explanation. Thanks!

I'm sorry I misunderstood your original post (my fault, not necessarily yours).

Now that I understand the problem (I think) I would like to know what you mean by "I need help...". What kind of help? If you are working on a Linux shell in C++, it seems to me that you must have an understanding of basic (and, probably, intermediate or above) C++ programming principles and practices. So how can we help? To get answers, you have to ask questions.

Regards,

Dave
