NAME
mdir - mtools utility to display contents of a DOS directory
SYNOPSIS
mdir [-w] msdosdirectory mdir [-w] msdosfile [msdosfile...]
OPTIONS
Specifies wide output. Enables file names to be displayed across the page without displaying the file size or creation date.
DESCRIPTION
The mdir command lists the contents of a DOS directory. Unlike the DOS convention, multiple arguments are supported. If the component of the path is not a directory, an error occurs. The mdir command assumes a new disk if the current path held in the file is invalid. DOS subdirectory names that contain the '/' or '' separator are supported. If you use the '' separator or wildcards, you must enclose file names in quotes to protect them from the shell. The mcd command can be used to establish the device and the current working directory (relative to DOS), otherwise the default is A:.
RESTRICTIONS
The mdir command does not support the /P (pause) option.
EXIT STATUS
The following exit values are returned: Success. Failure.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

FILES
