| When using the DOS prompt under NT you can use wildcards for more than
just finding files. You can also use them for finding directories. For example from the
C:\ prompt I can type:
cd p*
This will change the current directory into the first directory matching p*, in my case
the program files directory. You can also nest multiple wild cards just like full
directory specifications. For example:
cd p*\s*
Will change the current directory to Program Files\Sybase on my system. These wildcards
can also be used when copying files or any other operation where you can normally specify
a full path. |
