You didn't say, so I mentioned tcphelp because lots of folks forget it
exists.

It's a good read.

There's nothing that says the client commands have to match the protocol
commands.

>I figured maybe, just maybe, somebody had slimed it in.

If it was slimed in, I would not assume it was documented, even with the ?
command. You might try

lcd [ directory ]
Change the working directory on the local machine. If
no directory is specified, the user's home directory is
used.

which is what unix clients and the 32-bit TCP apps implement, but I'm
pretty sure it's not available on the client you are using.
