Your post piqued my curiosity. I haven't used Windows in 10 years, so I thought I'd do a little review. I started with the dir command. Evidently, DOS does have a dir command. You can see it's documentation for 95, 98, ME here.
Linux has a dir command also, but I'm not sure if all distros have it. The dir command appears to be just like ls, and it's written by the authors of ls, Richard Stallman and David MacKenzie.
Update: It works on Vista too.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
