looks for all files with a specified extension in
their names. The default is to look for the following file types:
CLUSTAL (.aln), FASTA (.fas, .fasta), FASTQ (.fq, .fastq), NEWICK
(.nwk, .newick, .tre, .tree), NEXUS (.nex, .nexus), and PHYLIP
(.phy). This list can be modified with editFileExtensions
.
bydir
sorts the list of files by directories.
Xplorefiles
returns a list. bydir
prints the file
listings on the console.
