Thankfully, Neko provides a handy readDirectory function for
listing the contents of a directory as an array of strings:
var contents : Array < String > = neko.FileSystem.readDirectory( ???../images??? );
Once you have your string array, you need to work out whether each item is a directory or a file. This
can be done in one of two ways. First, you can use the isDirectory method. This method expects a
string representing the path to the file or directory you want to query and will return a Boolean value;
true if the path is a directory and false if it isn ??™ t. If the path leads to a file or directory that does not
exist, then an exception will be thrown.

The second option is to use the kind method. This method will return kdir of the neko.FileKind
enumerator if the path is a directory, kfile if it ??™ s a file, or will throw an exception if the path does not
exist. A third enumerator, kother , may also be provided should the specified path be neither a file nor a
directory.
