l Brackets:Specifies a set of supported characters, or range of characters. Only one
character from the range is accepted, making this a subset of the ? wildcard.
l Sets:[13ab] defines support for one of these 4 characters. file[13ab].txt would pick
up file1.txt , filea.txt , but not file13.txt or filea3.txt.
l Negative Sets:[!13ab] indicates the character should NOTbe part of the set. file
[!13ab].txt would pick up file2.txt and filec.txt but not file1.txt or fileb.txt (nor would
it pick up file13.txt or filea3.txt).
l Ranges:[1-5] , [a-d] define ranges between the characters. file[1-5].txt would pick
up file1.txt and file4.txt but not file6.txt or file13.txt.
l Negative Ranges:Negative ranges such as [!2-4] are also possible.
Note
File names containing brackets can be a hassle when attempting to capture them with a mask and
using sets or ranges. You can capture a set that contains an opening bracket ([[] ) , but not a closing
bracket as the closing bracket always ends the set or range. There is no escape character available in
masks.
Date and Time Format
To simplify things and to prevent errors, date and time formats have been standardized.
l Dates are entered and displayed as yyyy/MM/dd (2007/06/13, for example).
l Times are entered and displayed using the 24 hour format as HH:mm:ss (3:38:54 PM, for
example, is entered and displayed as 15:38:54).
