What wildcard is the splat used for? On UNICES and DOS' it is many "I
don't cares" whereas on a Data General it is one character (like the
hook (?) in UNIX and DOS).
Since I've seem to remember the Data General AOS operating system
was developed by a lot of VAXites. A splat mat be for one character
if it is a wildcard on the VAX at all. Therefore the X.DAT. Remeber
the wildcards are those for the system you are getting- or
sending-from.
