If you mean with "/" as the option designator instead of "-": there doesn't appear to be a documented way of doing it. You would have to do some social engineering on the users to get them used to doing "dir -s -b". In any case I thought the number of Windows users who know how to fire up a Command Prompt window was diminishingly small ... you actually have users who know how to use commands like "dir /s /b"?
I used dir /s /b as a trivial Windows example. I use Windows for personal use but Ubuntu for work and programming.
Personally, I use dir /s /b all the time on Windows since the /b option finds files *much* faster; maybe 10x or 100x faster but I didn't get out a stopwatch.
