es about the same that MS-DOS does. Since A-DOS already alphabetizes its files, there is no need to summon a switch to do so as you must with MS-DOS. When I use MS-DOS, I always add the /O switch to order things unless I know that the directory I am looking at is fairly small. I don't have to do this with A-DOS. But MS-DOS does allow you to list files by date and size order, and I must admit that I like that very much. And, although not part of the DIR command, MS-DOS does allow you to "hide" files (make them invisible) while allowing you to list them with a DIR switch. Of course, this is only good if others sharing your machine are not very computer literate. And one more thing I like about MS-DOS is the /p switch, which causes the listing to pause at the end of each screen.
