Folder/File plugin needed

[Comperio]

I'm looking for a way to get a count of the number of files/folders in a directory without having to manually loop through the directory and count them.

Unfortunately, writing plugins isn't one of my strong points. I know that with VBScript, I can use folders.count or files.count property (with the help of scripting.fileSystemObject).

I'd like to be able to do the same from NSIS--either directly or via a plugin/system call.

Any ideas?
