THE DIRECTORY LISTING OF A SHAREWARE DISK
----------------------------------------------------------------
The next step is to use the DIR command to list the contents
of a disk so you can do a little detective work and determine
the disk contents and locate the instruction text files which
are probably contained on the disk.
We have already given examples for listing a directory to the
screen in our previous DOS lesson. Another option is to print
the directory on your printer and carefully highlight or pencil
notes about the files on the paper which is a good idea for
beginners at first.
Example for printing a directory of a disk onto paper:
A>DIR B:>PRN
Prints the directory of files on the B: floppy drive to your
printer.
