Dir (command)

In computing, dir (directory) is a command in various computer operating systems used for and directory listing. It is one of the basic commands to help navigate the . The command is usually implemented as an internal command in the command-line interpreter (shell). On some systems, a more graphical representation of the directory structure can be displayed using the tree command. The command is available in the command-line interface (CLI) of the operating systems Digital Research CP/M, MP/M, Intel ISIS-II, iRMX 86, Cromemco CDOS, MetaComCo TRIPOS, DOS, IBM/Toshiba 4690 OS, IBM OS/2, Microsoft Windows, Singularity, Datalight ROM-DOS, ReactOS, GNU, AROS and in the DCL command-line interface used on DEC VMS, RT-11 and RSX-11. It is also supplied with OS/8 as a CUSP (Commonly-Used System Program). The dir command is supported by Tim Paterson's SCP 86-DOS. On MS-DOS, the command is available in versions 1 and later. It is also available in the open source MS-DOS emulator DOSBox. MS-DOS prompts "Abort, Retry, Fail?" after being commanded to list a with no diskette in the drive. The numerical computing environments MATLAB and GNU Octave include a dir function with similar functionality. List all files and directories in the current working directory. dir List any s and s ( ".txt" or ".bat"). dir *.txt *.bat Recursively list all files and directories in the specified directory and any subdirectories, in wide format, pausing after each screen of output. The directory name is enclosed in double-quotes, to prevent it from being interpreted is as two separate command-line options because it contains a whitespace character. dir /s /w /p "C:\My Documents" List any NTFS junction points: C:\Users>dir /ash Volume in drive C is OS. Volume Serial Number is xxxx-xxxx Directory of C:\Users 12/07/2019 02:30 AM All Users [C:\ProgramData] 12/07/2019 02:30 AM Default User [C:\Users\Default] 12/07/2019 02:12 AM 174 desktop.ini 1 File(s) 174 bytes 2 Dir(s) 332,659,789,824 bytes free dir is not a Unix command; Unix has the analogous ls command instead.

Command (computing)

In computing, a command is a directive to a computer program to perform a specific task. It may be issued via a command-line interface, such as a shell, or as input to a network service as part of a network protocol, or as an event in a graphical user interface triggered by the user selecting an option in a menu. Specifically, the term command is used in imperative computer languages. The name arises because statements in these languages are usually written in a manner similar to the imperative mood used in many natural languages.

List of DOS commands

This article presents a list of commands used by DOS operating systems, especially as used on x86-based IBM PC compatibles (PCs). Other DOS operating systems are not part of the scope of this list. In DOS, many standard system commands were provided for common tasks such as listing files on a disk or moving files. Some commands were built into the command interpreter, others existed as external commands on disk. Over the several generations of DOS, commands were added for the additional functions of the operating system.

Cd (command)

The command, also known as (change directory), is a command-line shell command used to change the current working directory in various operating systems. It can be used in shell scripts and s. The command has been implemented in operating systems such as Unix, DOS, IBM OS/2, MetaComCo TRIPOS, AmigaOS (where if a bare path is given, cd is implied), Microsoft Windows, ReactOS, and Linux. On MS-DOS, it is available in versions 2 and later. DR DOS 6.0 also includes an implementation of the and commands.

Reproducibility Report for ACM SIGMOD 2025 Paper: 'Dangers of List Processing in Querying Property Graphs'

The core thesis of this paper was reproduced in an environment similar to the one described in the paper. The authors provided a set of commands to execute the experiments. The experimental data was automatically generated. The resulting figures have some minor deviations from the originals, but the overall trends remain the same, and hence they can be considered a good fit to reproduce the results of the paper.

Intro to Traffic Flow Modeling and Intelligent Transport Systems

Travelers in large cities experience significant congestion during their everyday trips. Expanding roads and infrastructure is not a long-lasting remedy to urban congestion. This course will focus on understanding traffic congestion and will explore ways to improve mobility through advanced traffic management schemes. As we all experience, congestion is a highly complex process without a single explanation. An interesting question is: “Can we describe these complex interactions with simple and elegant ways?
