Sorry, no answer. A question...
What's wrong with the following?

module dirmod
import StdEnv,StdIO,Directory

ff world = getDirectoryContents
   (AbsolutePath "D" [PathDown "\\Work"]) world

Start :: *World -> ([DirEntry],*World)
Start world
   # ((a,b),world) = ff world
   = (b,world)

//====


Here 'a' is the error code, I *didn't want to look at*.
But it caught me anyway. The program compiled and responded:

(fatal error: tried to evaluate an error value returned by
  function getDirectoryContents).

??


Thanks.
