PART 7 USING MS-DOS 7.6.4 Global File Names Two symbols, the question mark (?) and asterisk (*) in a file name have special functions, to indicate a number of files with only one file name specification. Suppose that your disk contains the files which have the following file names. SALES.A1 SALES.B2 SALES.JAN By typing SALES.9! you can specify all of the files except the SALES.JAN. A question mark (?) represents any character which is located at that position. An asterisk (*) represents any character or any number of characters which are located at that position. Thus if you type SALES.* you can specify all of the files shown above. Below are further examples. All files on a disk. *.TTL : All files on a disk with the extension "TTL". ??!.A* : All files which have a three-character file name and an extension beginning with "A". 7-23

PART

USING
MS-DOS
7.6.4
Global
File
Names
Two
symbols,
the
question
mark
(?)
and
asterisk
(*)
in
a
file
name
have
special
functions,
to
indicate
a
number
of
files
with
only
one
file
name
specification.
Suppose
that
your
disk
contains
the
files
which
have
the
following
file
names.
SALES.A1
SALES.B2
SALES.JAN
By
typing
SALES.9!
you
can
specify
all
of
the
files
except
the
SALES.JAN.
A
question
mark
(?)
represents
any
character
which
is
located
at
that
position.
An
asterisk
(*)
represents
any
character
or
any
number
of
characters
which
are
located
at
that
position.
Thus
if
you
type
SALES.*
you
can
specify
all
of
the
files
shown
above.
Below
are
further
examples.
All
files
on
a

*.TTL
:
All
files
on
a
disk
with
the
extension
"TTL".
??!.A*
:
All
