- The batch files DN.BAT, DX.BAT, DS.BAT and DD.BAT write
- sorted directories on the screen only. They sort on the directory
- line starting with fileName, eXtension, Size or Date (mm/dd/yy).
- The sorted directory can be stored by modifying the batch files,
- as in the example of DXSAVE.BAT.
- These batch files have two dummy parameters: drive and
- filename and extension restriction, if any. Thus, to sort the files
- on drive E that satisfy the filename and extension restriction of
- ABC?.*, sorting by size, one uses:
- DS E ABC?.*
- The spaces between S, E and A are important.
- Note that if one sorts on a restricted set of files, such as
- with DX E *.COM, then that amounts to the same thing as DS E *.COM.
