To list the files in a different directory on the current drive, type
the pathname of that directory. For example, to list the contents of
the LEDGER subdirectory while logged onto drive C, type
DIR
\
LEDGER
and press Enter. (Pathnames are described below.)
Using Pathnames
Whenever you want to access a file that is not in the current
directory, you must specify the file’s pathname. A full pathname
consists of one or more directory names separated by backslashes
and followed by the filename. The pathname tells MS-DOS where
your file is stored.
