Of course, one would hope that you didn't have to use all 32 (and that the names would not be space-padded). Most people would not use long names so an ls like the Unix one which prints as many columns as will fit on the screen would be convenient. imc PS one of the first things I did when I got MasterDos was POKE that variable which stops the names from being space-padded before the dot...
