DMAP

Lists information about files.


Formats

DMAP string [keyword]
DMAP bletter eletter [keyword]


Parameters

string

character string in the file name; you can include the wild card characters asterisk (*) and question mark (?) (default=lists all files)

bletter

beginning letter of the file name

eletter

end of the range of letters beginning the file name (default=bletter)


Keyword

Form=

ALL

lists all versions of the specified file names; the unreachable versions are flagged by a pound sign (#)


Remarks

DMAP lists file information in ASCII collating sequence. The permissions, size, date, file name and directory are given for each entry in the list.

If you specify string without a wild card character, DMAP lists all files that begin with the specified character string. If you specify bletter and eletter, all files with names that begin with a letter in the range bletter-eletter are listed.

The output's PERM field indicates the user's permissions. A d in the first field position indicates the entry is a directory; a hyphen (-) indicates a file. The letters r, w or x in the next three positions indicate read, write or execute permissions. A hyphen (-) in any of the positions indicates that the user does not have that permission.

The FORM=ALL list also includes unreachable files in the REDIRECT entries and the MCPATH directories. Unreachable files are flagged by a pound sign (#) before the fully qualified path name in the PATHNAME field. If the file is in a REDIRECT directory, the FROM field contains an R followed by the REDIRECT entry. If the file is in a MCPATH directory, the FROM field is an M.
