    direct.h is part of the Digital Mars compiler, not gcc.

    Most of its functions have similar names on linux that’s posix standarized. Read the manpage for e.g. getcwd , rmdir, mkdir ,or clarify your question as to which functions you need.

    As a start, just remove the include and see what other errors you are getting, and work from there.
