One way that I can think of is to put the following in that Alias4.dos file I was discussing with you: dir=*dir/arhs Notice the asterisk! You will need to have that where I have shown it or you will wind up in an endless loop. A couple more that I use: ; directory with all attributes, upper case, hide dots, suppress header & ; footer, sort the listing by extension order dr=*dir/aehkmo:e ; directory with all attributes, upper case, hide dots, suppress header & ; footer, sort the listing by extension order with no date, time, or ; filesize drb=*dir/abehkmo:e ; "shortcut" for typing EXIT ex=*exit I can probably dig up some more from the DOS machine...
