Command List XI
Commands SHOWLOG thru STORE
These wildcard characters can be used as follows
n@ Store all files starting with the character n.
@n Store all files ending with the character n.
n##...# Store all files starting with character n followed by up to
seven digits (useful for storing all EDIT/3000 temporary
files).
n@x Store all files starting with the character n and ending
with the character x.
?n@ Store all files whose second character is n.
n? store all two-character files starting with the character n.
?n Store all two-character files ending with the character n.
Also, character sets may be specified in the following syntax:
[ct] specifies letter c or t.
[c-t] specifies any letter from range c to t.
[e-g1] specifies any letter range e to g or digit 1.
Examples of using character sets are:
[A-C]@ Store all files that begin with the letters A, B, or C.
myset[e-g1] Store all files that begin with the name myset and end in
e, f, or g, or 1.
myset
[d-e1-6] Store all files that begin with the name myset and end in d
or e, or 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6.
You may specify up to a maximum of sixteen characters for each character
set and you may not nest brackets. You may not use character sets with
the TRANSPORT option.
A character set specifies a range for only one (1) ASCII character. The
range [a-d]@ gets all files that begin with the letter a through the letter d.
The ranged [ad-de] may cause unpredictable results.
Since the hyphen (-) is a valid character for HFS syntax file names, it is
allowed inside a character set, immediately following a left bracket ([) or
preceding a right bracket (]). When specified between two characters, the
hyphen implies a range of characters.
Specifying Database Files
When specifying TurboIMAGE and ALLBASE/SQL databases to be stored,
only the root file or DBCon file needs to be specified. STORE will determine
which other files belong to that database, and will store all of them. If
dataset file(s) are specified without specifying a root file, then a warning
will be printed for each file, and they will not be stored. Individual
database files can be stored without the root file by specifying the
;PARTIALDB option on the STORE command line.
