SHOW_DIRECTORY
. Summary
show_directory(str <filespec>, int <cecho>, int <carrier>);
. Description
The show_directory function displays a files directory listing to
the screen and optionally echoes it to the comm port. The <filespec>
is the file mask to use (e.g., "*.*"), and may also include a drive
and/or directory, just like the DOS 'dir' command. If the <cecho>
argument is non-zero (TRUE), the listing is also be echoed to the
comm port. If the <carrier> argument is non-zero (TRUE) and the
listing is being echoed to the comm port, the carrier signal is mon-
itored in case the connection is lost (which aborts the display).
The user is prompted to press a key after every screen full of data.
. Return Value
None.
. Example
show_directory("*.DOC", 0, 0);
