mdir(1)								       mdir(1)

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 sup‐
       ported.	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
       The following environment variables affect the execution	 of  mdir:  If
       set, this variable names the file that contains the name of the current
       mtools working directory as established by the mcd  command.   If  this
       variable is not set, the file $HOME/.mcwd is used.

FILES
       Contains	 the  name  of	the current mtools working directory as estab‐
       lished by the mcd command.  If this file does not  exist,  the  default
       mtools working directory is A:\.	 Executable file
