The filter command allows you to control what files you see
in the Left or Right file panels.
There are three options:
+-------- Filter ---------+
| Select files to display |
| (.) All files |
| ( ) Executable files | .--- .com, .exe, and
| ( ) Custom: | .bat files
| |
--------------------------|
| [ Ok ] [ Cancel ] |
+-------------------------+
. All files is the normal case.
. Executable files shows only program and batch files.
. Custom: allows you to supply a DOS wildcard pattern to
select which files you view.
DOS Wildcard Characters
-----------------------
DOS file names have two parts: the name (which can be up to 8
characters) and the extension (which can be up to 3
characters) with a period in between. For example,
"filename.ext".
* Match any characters for the rest of the name or
extension. "a*" will match "a", "ab", and "abc", as
well as many others. '*' applies just to one part of
the file name, so "a*" will not match "ab.c". Use
"a*.*" to find all files that start with 'a' and have
any extension. (Note: "*a" will match any name, and
not just names with an `a' at the end as you might
expect.)
? Match one character. So "a?" will match "a", "ab",
"ac", etc. "????" will match any name with up to four
characters.
