Command Line Wildcard Expansion
A number of Sierra C™ utilities expand wildcards in command line filenames.
Wildcard characters are defined as follows:
*
Match zero or more characters, where characters matched may be any
character except the period (
.
) . Dot-star (
. *
) at the end of a wildcard
string matches files with and without extensions.
?
Match any character except the period ( . ) .
[
char_set]
Match any character in the character set
char_set. Characters can be
listed individually or as members of a range. A range is denoted by a
hyphen (
-
) separated pair of characters; it includes the two characters
and all characters lexically between them.
The following are examples of wildcard expansions:
*.*
Match all filenames in the current directory.
*
Match all filenames without extensions in the current directory.
*.?*
Match all filenames with extensions in the current directory.
*.c *.s
Match all filenames with extensions of .c or .s in the current directory.
*.[cs]
Same as *.c *.s
c:\doc\version[0-9a-f].doc
Match all filenames in the subdirectory c:\doc with a base name of
version followed by a hexadecimal digit and a .doc extension.
