Subject: Microsoft syntax for DIR
Reply-To: opendos AT delorie DOT com

Well, I finally did it.  After typing DIR /OD /P for the ninety-ninth
time, then translating that to XDIR /T /P (and *then* trying to use
the spacebar to page through the listing....) I finally broke down and
wrote the code.  Now I can use the switches the I'm used to, like /S
/O and /A, with DIR.  Nagging annoyance solved.

Does anybody else want this widget?  I could polish up the doc file a
bit, zip it and and pip it to the website sometime today, if there's
any interest.
