If you're not using a DOS COMMAND/CMD shell, and DJGPP/bin is in your
path, you're running the fileutils DJGPP/bin/dir == "ls -bC", not the
internal command dir, for which you have to run the command shell
"command /c dir /s c:\djgpp\*.dxe". The clue is the direction of the
directory separators on the output: normal / for DJGPP, backwards \
for DOS, but you should also get either an error message such as
"DJGPP/bin/dir: /s: No such file or directory (ENOENT)" or a list of
the contents if you have a top level directory "C:\S".
