URL: https://github.com/apache/hop/issues/2394

   ### What would you like to happen?
   
   Some of our vendors distribute files to us nightly contained in a folder 
named using a timestamp of when they produced the files.
   I need a transform that can give me a list of folders and files within 
folders so I can narrow the list down to what I need to download.
   
   Real scenario

   The vendor creates timestamped folders representing when the data was 
prepared for us.
   I need a way to figure out the latest folder in that list, then list the 
files inside the folder and commence downloading and processing them into our 
data warehouse.
   
   I could use the same step twice, once to get a list of folders, then pass 
the latest to the step again so it will get me a file listing in that folder.  
Then I could send that file listing to an SFTP Get File step where it will 
download each one from my file list in the rowset.
