     INVOKING B29
There are several ways to call B29.

A0>B29 *          logs all users on the default drive
A0>B29 B          logs drive B in the current user
A0>B29 B3         logs drive B in user 3
A0>B29 B12        logs drive B in user 12
A0>B29 B*         logs drive B all files in all users
A0>B29 B7*        logs drive B user 7 and displays all files in all users
A0>B29 B12;*.COM  logs B, user 12 and all .COM files
A0>B29 B*;*.COM   logs all users and all .COM files
