Hi Joe,

  you can create a dcl script named dirsize and in the script symbols
p1, p2, ... Pn refers to first argument, second arg. third arg... and
so on that you supply in the command prompt.

Hi,

I want to to have dir sort by size so I created the following command:

pipe dir /size %blah% | sort /key=(POS:25,SIZ:10) sys$pipe sys$output

This will output whatever dir %blah% is sorted by size. I'd like to
create a symbol or .com file to so that you can do something like
@dirsize argument (where dirsize.com is the .com filename).
