LS - Directory Lister for Windows 95 DOS Box
I needed a directory lister that handled the Win95 long file names,
displayed in several formats (that normally required several
programs), and was able to selectively display system, hidden
and read-only files or directories. I specially needed the
categorized columnar display that is available on some Unix
systems. I also needed something that was fast, and did not take
forever to load.
To install, just copy the file "LS.EXE" anywhere in your path.
Make sure that there is no other file with that name around.
Path separators on the command line can be entered either
as a \ or as a /
For example,
ls /windows/system
is exactly the same as
ls \windows\system
Either on will list the directory \WINDOWS\SYSTEM.
This will be appreciated by dyed-in-the-wool Unix users.
There are several option flags to "ls".
Type "ls -h" to get a list of these flags.
The help screen looks like this:
