NAME
       dosdir - list an MS-DOS directory [IBM]

SYNOPSIS
       dosdir [-lr] drive

OPTIONS
       -l     Long listing

       -r     Recursively descend and print subdirectories

EXAMPLES
       dosdir -l A	   # List root directory on drive A

       dosdir -r C x/y	   # Recursively list directory x/y

       dosdir -r fd1	   # List device /dev/fd1

DESCRIPTION
       Dosdir  reads  standard	IBM  PC diskettes or hard disk partitions in MS-DOS format and lists their contents on standard output.  Directory
       names should contain slashes to separate components, even though MS-DOS uses backslashes.  The names dosdir , dosread ,	and  doswrite  are
       all  links to the same program.	The program sees which function to perform by seeing how it was called.  A drive code of A causes the pro-
       gram to use /dev/dosA, for example, a link to /dev/fd0.	Similarly, to have hard disk partition 1 be DOS drive C, /dev/dosC could be a link
       to /dev/hd1, and so on for other drive codes.  A normal device name may also be used instead of a drive code.
