MRDIR removes a subdirectory. FILES displays the contents of the current
directory or a specified directory.

FILES [filespec$]
 
    ■ pathname$    The path of the new default directory, subdirectory to
                   create, or subdirectory to remove.
    ■ filespec$    A filename or path (may include a drive and DOS wildcard
                   characters). If you don't specify a filespec$, FILES
