still ok...

There isn't a prebuilt "single command" solution. You have to write a
java stored procedure and a PLSQL wrapper procedure.
Read java docs and Look at list() or listFiles() functions in
"File" interface in "java.io" API. Goto
http://tahiti.oracle.com
for Oracle docs.
Hint:
import java.io.*;
public class foo {
public static String getFileList (String dirname) {
....
File dir = new File(dirname);
String[] entries = dir.list();
...
}
}
