Afaik there is a 'DIR' command in MS-DOS. Anyway, what would be a better command to list a directory? I could think of 'ls' maybe

I would most likely end up with something like this:

  CAT          CATalogue - output the contents of current directory
  RM           to Raster Memory - load contents of named file in framebuffer
  MV           Make Virtual - map the file into memory and output the address
  LS           Load System - attempt to reboot using the named file as the kernel
  CD           Create Directory - self-explanatory
  SH           System Halt - immediately stop all processing

...and so on.

		I suggest: RM Relocate me - you could also use the "-rf" flag to relative fuzzy matching, for instance `rm -rf tmp` to find any temp-like folder near your current location. Pretty standard stuff. CD Clear data - `cd -L /temp` would "liquidate" the directory. This would be a much simpler command interface.

		To create a file, we should take inspiration from TOPS-10 and call the command `make` [0]. When issuing `make love`, it should ask for confirmation to the user: `not war?`. [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Easter_egg_(media)

		Very good design. Implements only the essential tasks an operator would need with concise and well-known mnemonics. I’m sure this will be immediately intuitive to anyone, with no potential for mistakes whatsoever.

		CAT was on the Amstrad CPC.

As someone old enough to have started on MS-DOS 3.3, dir has been there all time.
