[DGD] More info on expand()

[Wes Connell]

I'm not sure if Shevek solved his expand() problems, but I am having one of
my own. Inside expand() the variable 'dir' is initially set by get_dir(). 
The kfun docs on get_dir() say that it returns an array in the following
configuration:

({ ({ file names }), ({ file sizes }), ({ file mod times }) })

However, near the end of expand() the following code is executed:

        all[0] += dir[0];
        all[1] += dir[1];
        all[2] += dir[2];
        all[3] += dir[3];
        all[4] += sizeof(dir[0]);

This is expecting a 4th value inside 'dir'. Some parts of the expand() code
do set this 4th value but only in the case of error.

I know this 4th value is used to determine whether or not the filename is
currently compiled into an object. The only place I've found this used is 
in the ls command to insert the asterisk before the filename.

So my quesiton is, how is this 4th value set? I have exported the code to
my own wiztool but I dont think that should matter much since it is calling
get_dir() as a kfun.

Thanks guys!
