Note: This command will display the files and directories of any directory on the hard disk. It is necessary to specify the location of the directory to be displayed using a relative path format. In a relative path the character . means current path, .. means parent path, and / or \ separates directories. It is also necessary to specify a filename mask which will determine what files are displayed. In a filemask the character ? substitutes for any single character, * substitutes for any number of characters. If the command is executed without parameters it will display the contents of the quake2/baseq2/ directory.
