   On stock RSDOS you can just pause the DIR listing with the SHIFT @   
   combination, you have to be fast to avoid the first entries from scrolling   
   away, then hit any other key (except BREAK) to have the list continue and then   
   SHIT @ again to stop - again this    
   is a thing of practice to get good at it.   
      
   If you have a printer attached to the CoCo do a POKE 111,254:DIR sequence and   
   as soon as you hit ENTER the CoCo will read the DIR and because of the POKE   
   the output would be directed to the printer instead of the screen for the   
   duration of the DIR reaad,    
   once it prints all the redirection ceases and goes back to the screen.   
      
   The other way to go would be for a BASIC program that reads the directory   
   entries and paginates the display. Such routine would rely heavily on the   
   DSKI$ command to read the directory area and print out a formatted output.
