"The /4 option is similar to /2, but displays directory information in
4 columns. On drives which do not support long filenames, or when /Z
or /X is used (see below), the display shows the file name and the
file size in kilobytes (KB) or megabytes (MB), with "<D>" in the size
column for directories."
On my Novell drive, which does NOT support long filenames, and on my
Windows FAT and FAT32 drives (which do accept it, so maybe they don't
count), DIR /4 does not show the size. With either /X or /Z added, it
does.
