- DIR
-
- The DIR internal command lists information about files in a directory. For
- each file, the filename and extension (or <DIR> for a subdirectory), size of
- the file, and creation date and time is listed. The list is in the order the
- files appear in the directory, followed by the amount of space left on the
- disk. The date format is described in the DATE command topic.
-
- DIR [d:][pathname][filename[.ext]] [/P] [/W]
-
- [d:][pathname][filename[.ext]] specifies the file(s) to list. Wildcard
- characters can be used. *.* is assumed if the filename and ext are
- both omitted.f
-
- /P causes the display to pause when the screen is full. When you press the
- Enter, Return, or <──┘ key the listing will continue.
-
- /W provides a wide display, with each line displaying 5 filenames. Only the
- filenames and extension names, and amount of space left on the disk, will
- be displayed. The ATTRIB command can also list filenames (only).
