PROGRAM:
LS - Expand and generate list of file names.
USAGE:
LS afn ... [>fid]
FUNCTION:
Expands file names that appear on the command line. It
automatically expands the parameter list to contain all files
that fit the afn's.
An afn preceded by a "!" causes all names matching the given afn
to be EXCLUDED from the resulting expansion list. Thus, to yield
a command line containing all files except "COM" files, you'd say:
A>LS !*.com <cr>
Another example: to get all files on B: except .C files, say:
A>LS b:*.* !b:*.c <cr>
When giving a "!" afn, "*" chars in the string matches to the end
of either the filename or extension, just like CP/M, but "?"
chars match ONE and ONLY ONE character in either the filename or
extension.
EXAMPLE:
LS *.HLP !HELP.HLP |PAGE |2UP -N4 >LST:
COMMENTS:
No input is used except from the command line.
