FDIRECTORY monitor command FDIRECTORY monitor command Syntax FDIRECTORY /qualifier file_spec Function Display information about the files on a disk, along with the amount of space still available for storage. Create and delete subdirectories on disks. Usage Considerations When the parameter "/qualifier" is specified, there cannot be a space between the command keyword and the "/". Subdirectories can be nested to a maximum depth of 16. The total length of a directory path specification cannot exceed 80 characters, including any defaults. Subdirectories cannot be deleted if they contain any files, or if they are being accessed (for example, after an FOPEND instruction).
Parameters /qualifier Optional qualifier "/C" or "/D", which specifies that a subdirectory is to be created or deleted, respectively. If omitted, a directory listing is generated. file_spec Optional file specification string that selects the file(s) to be displayed, or the subdirectory to be created or deleted (see below). If a directory is being displayed, the file specification may contain a physical device, a disk unit, a directory path, a file name, and a file extension. The file name or extension can be omitted or can contain "wildcard" matching characters (see item 6 under details below). If a subdirectory is being created or deleted, the file name and extension must be omitted.
Also, a directory must be specified, and it must be terminated with a "\". For either function of the command, the default directory specification (set with the DEFAULT monitor command) is used to supply any missing portion of the file specification. eV+Operating System Reference Guide, 2.x,18321-000 Rev A Page 94
