XDIR Summary



     XDIR runs in two basic modes:
          . as a directory display utility
          . as a file scanner utility

XDIR Output Control

     The Output Control options of XDIR are:

          D  - Send Output to Disk
          Oo - Output Control
               OA - Toggle Display of File Attributes
               OF - Toggle Send of Form Feed with Print
               OG - Toggle File Grouping (name/type or type/name)
               O╚ - Togglσ Forma⌠ (Horizonta∞ o≥ Vertical)
          P  - Send Output to Printer
          PF - Same as POF, which sends output to printer and
