runaway DIR command can't be halted #32

Closed masinter closed 3 years ago

masinter commented 4 years ago

as noted by @pmcjones if at the top level you just say "dir", it produces a stream of all files to all depths. doesn't elide "invisible" files starting with . and no interrupt character (control-D control-C control B control P seems to be able to get in there and interrupt.

Possibly related to #29

to reproduce, set FILING.ENUMERATION.DEPTH to T (= infinity)
