Directory (OpenVMS command)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In computer software, specifically the command line interface of the OpenVMS operating system, the DIRECTORY command (often abbreviated as DIR) is used to list the files inside a directory. It is analogous to the DOS dir and Unix ls commands.
