For this example, let's assume that you think you have a
file name FACT&FIG on a diskette. Here's how you
make sure:
With DOS ready (A> is displayed), insert the diskette
into drive A:.
Type:
dir fact&fig
r-....

and press the Enter key.
If
FACT&FIG is indeed on the diskette, its filename
(FACT&FIG), its extension (in this case, blanks), its
size, and its update date are shown.
If the diskette does not have a file named FACT&FIG,
then after a second or two the message:
r-....
File not found
A>_
is displayed.
