Entering the file name to load

Once you have chosen the two corners, you are shown a screen that displays a selection of file names that you can load into the new window. You can select a file name by clicking on it with the left mouse button or by typing the file name in yourself.

Which file names you are presented with depends on the option variable filePattern. This is used like wildcard file patterns in DOS. To change the filePattern, look at the PATTERNS menu at the top of the screen. You can put path names in the filePattern, and can specify several different patterns in filePattern by separating them with vertical bars (``|'').

To cancel the window create, click on Cancel.

Files are usually sorted on the screen. The three possible sort modes are: by file name, by file extension, or unsorted.

If the file names will not fit on one screen you can see the rest of the names by clicking on Next page.
