Description:

   The  DIRECTORY command lists the files contained in a directory.  When
   you use certain qualifiers with the command, additional information is
   displayed,  along  with  the  names  of  the files.  The output of the
   DIRECTORY  command  depends on certain formatting qualifiers and their
   defaults.  These  qualifiers  are:  /COLUMNS,  /DATE,  /FULL,  /OWNER,
   /PROTECTION, and /SIZE.

   In  studying the qualifiers and the capabilities they offer, watch for
   qualifiers that override other qualifiers. For example, if you specify
   the  /FULL  format,  the  system cannot display all the information in
   more  than  one column.  Thus, if you specify both /COLUMNS and /FULL,
   the number of columns you requested is ignored.

   Format:	DIRECTORY [file-spec[,...]]
