Syntax


DIR

[ file-pattern ]


Operands


file-pattern

If specified, this provides the file pattern mask which you wish File Manager to use when displaying the directory. e.g. a string of  *.txt would display only the .TXT files in the directory



Description


The DIR command will switch to File Manager and display the directory containing the current Edit / Browse file, using the File Pattern if specified.


If the current tab is not a normal Edit / Browse session (e.g. a CLIP or Set-Edit session) the command is rejected.


Note that the DIR command provides a function comparable to that provided by the Windows Explorer when the context-menu item called Open Containing Folder is selected for a given file name.
