Build a list of rootfile from directory

ROOT
1

Hi all,
I have several rootfiles each with several histograms to fit.
For each file I am able to loop inside it, get the histogram and fit it, but I would like to write a piece of code to build a list (or whatever) that has all the files I have in my directory.
So I could loop over this list and for each file loop over the histograms.

I have tried gSystem->Exec(“ls *.root”) but I don’t know how to grab the output to build a proper list.

Can anybody send me an hint?

Thank you!

see an example in tutorial importCode.C. If you do not have it in your distribution, it is in the attachement.
