    Hi, you can try the fs package. It is a great package and it should work consistently. I do not use MacOS but I think it will work as you want it. The Github has a link to its website which has a page for comparisons between fs and base R functions. I think you are looking for dir_ls().

    One more thing: if you are building because Luvit is not precompiled for your architecture, you will need to follow the instructions found here: https://github.com/luvit/luvi/issues/236
