- THE DIRECTORY LISTING OF A SHAREWARE DISK
-
- ----------------------------------------------------------------
-
- The next step is to use the DIR command to list the contents
- of a disk so you can do a little detective work and determine
- the disk contents and locate the instruction text files which
- are probably contained on the disk.
-
- We have already given examples for listing a directory to the
- screen in our previous DOS lesson. Another option is to print
- the directory on your printer and carefully highlight or pencil
- notes about the files on the paper which is a good idea for
- beginners at first.
-
- Example for printing a directory of a disk onto paper:
-
- A>DIR B:>PRN
-
- Prints the directory of files on the B: floppy drive to your
- printer.
