.SH Description
|
|
.PP
|
|
The \fR\&\f(CWmdir\fR command is used to display an MS-DOS directory. Its
|
|
syntax is:
|
|
.PP
|
|
\&\fR\&\f(CWmdir\fR [\fR\&\f(CW-/\fR] [\fR\&\f(CW-f\fR] [\fR\&\f(CW-w\fR] [\fR\&\f(CW-a\fR] [\fR\&\f(CW-b\fR] \fImsdosfile\fR [ \fImsdosfiles\fR\&...]
|
|
.PP
|
|
\&\fR\&\f(CWMdir\fR
|
|
displays the contents of MS-DOS directories, or the entries for some
|
|
MS-DOS files.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\&\fR\&\f(CWMdir\fR supports the following command line options:
|
|
.TP
|
|
\&\fR\&\f(CW/\fR\
|
|
Recursive output, just like MS-DOS' \fR\&\f(CW-s\fR option
|
|
.TP
|
|
\&\fR\&\f(CWw\fR\
|
|
Wide output. With this option, \fR\&\f(CWmdir\fR prints the filenames across
|
|
the page without displaying the file size or creation date.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\&\fR\&\f(CWa\fR\
|
|
Also list hidden files.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\&\fR\&\f(CWf\fR\
|
|
Fast. Do not try to find out free space. On larger disks, finding out
|
|
the amount of free space takes up some non trivial amount of time, as
|
|
the whole FAT must be read in and scanned. The \fR\&\f(CW-f\fR flag bypasses
|
|
this step. This flag is not needed on FAT32 file systems, which store
|
|
the size explicitly.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\&\fR\&\f(CWb\fR\
|
|
Concise listing. Lists each directory name or filename, one per line
|
|
(including the filename extension). This switch displays no heading
|
|
information and no summary. Only a newline separated list of pathnames
|
|
is displayed.
|
|
.PP
|
|
An error occurs if a component of the path is not a directory.

.SH Viewing\ the\ texi\ doc
|
|
This manpage has been automatically generated from mtools's texinfo
|
|
documentation. However, this process is only approximative, and some
|
|
items, such as crossreferences, footnotes and indices are lost in this
|
|
translation process. Indeed, these items have no appropriate
|
|
representation in the manpage format. Moreover, not all information has
|
|
been translated into the manpage version. Thus I strongly advise you to
|
|
use the original texinfo doc. See the end of this manpage for
|
|
instructions how to view the texinfo doc.

The texinfo doc looks most pretty when printed or as html. Indeed, in
|
|
the info version certain examples are difficult to read due to the
|
|
quoting conventions used in info.
