For HFS name syntax, the lowercase letters are treated distinctly from the
uppercase letters (no upshifting). Names in MPE syntax are upshifted.
Both MPE and HFS name components can use the characters @, #, and ?
as wildcard characters. These wildcard characters have the following
meaning:
@ specifies zero or more alphanumeric characters.
# specifies one numeric character.
? specifies one alphanumeric character.
These wildcard characters can be used as follows
n@ Verify all files starting with the character n.
@n Verify all files ending with the character n.
n##...# Verify all files starting with character n followed by up to
seven digits (useful for storing all EDIT/3000 temporary
files).
n@x Verify all files starting with the character n and ending
with the character x.
?n@ Verify all files whose second character is n.
n? store all two-character files starting with the character n.
?n Verify 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]@ Verify all files that begin with the letters A, B, or C.
myset[e-g1] Verify all files that begin with the name myset and end in
e, f, or g, or 1.
