1)Dir command in windows is used to displays a list of files and subdirectories in a directory. It allows following options with it.

a./D - Sort by coloumns
b./N - Show long list format
c./OD - Sort by oldest to newest
d./O-D - Sort by newest to oldest
e./P - Pause after each screenful of information
f./S - Recursive listing

Write a shell script that enables dir command on terminal.

Hint : Name your script by name “dir” and add the path of the script to the $PATH. Check the man page for ls command to find the equivalent linux options for the options stated above.

Hiya isurues,
Welcome to the forums.
This sounds like a homework assignment, which is against the forum rules. But you're only asking for details, so I think thats ok.
All I can suggest to you is, read the man pages for ls and dir, try the info pages too. Good Luck.

Have you checked manpage of ls command?

man ls

It looks like HomeWork assignment only. Its against Forum Rules as mentioned by MikeTbob already.
Do start a new thread if you have any particular problem.
