Function 4Fh (79)        Find Next Matching File (FIND NEXT)

    Finds the next matching file (after a previous call to Function 4Eh or
    4Fh call) and returns information at the current DTA address.

       On entry:      AH         4Fh

       Returns:       AX         Error code, if CF is set

       Error codes:   18         No more files to be found

                      Call Function 59h for extended error code information

    Function 4Fh continues the file search that was begun by Function 4Eh,
    returning 43 bytes of information at the current DTA address. The
    information is formatted as in Function 4Eh:

            Offset     Size       Description
             00h        21        Used by DOS for find-next processing
             15h         1        Attribute of file found
             16h         2        Time stamp of file
             18h         2        Date stamp of file
             1Ah         4        File size in bytes
             1Eh        13        Filename and extension, as an ASCIIZ string

    The filename and extension are reported in conventional notation, with
    blanks removed and a period between the filename and the extension. If
    the file has no extension, the period is suppressed.
