I prefer to see all the files all the time, so I usually use a
batch file (d.cmd) from the command line whenever I want to look
at a directory. (I "borrowed" the "d" name from a CP/M utility I
had been using regularly before switching to OS/2.)

Here it (the batch file) is in all its glory:

@echo off
rem /A show files with all attributes
rem /N use HPFS format for directory display
rem /O sort files (default: alpha, directories then files)
rem /V (undocumented) display file attributes in listing
rem /P pause for pages
rem %2 allows /S (subdirectories) or other added entries
IF +%1==+/S GOTO SUBDIR
IF +%1==+/s GOTO SUBDIR
dir %1 /A /N /O /V /P %2
GOTO END
:SUBDIR
dir /A /N /O /V /S /P %2
:END
