Yes there is. You can use a combination of APP commands and TABLE FILEs to do just that.
For example:
APP QUERY appname HOLD
TABLE FILE focappq
PRINT *
IF FILENAME CONTAINS '.mas'
END

The rest of what you wish to do with it, is up to you of course. The above code only gives the masterf iles themselves. If you also need to have an overview of the contents of the master files, use DM techniques (-REPEAT and -READ and such) combined with CHECK FILE master HOLD) to produce overviews of the fields per master.
