FILES prints the names of files residing on the specified disk.
 
FILES [filespec$]
 
Usage Notes
    ■ You may use the DOS wildcard characters--question marks (?)
      or asterisks (*). A question mark matches any single character
      in the filename or extension. An asterisk matches one or more
      characters starting at that position.
    ■ If you use the argument filespec$ without an explicit path, the
      current directory is the default.
