#print Sometimes ? is too flexible, and you only want to allow a few characters. For example, you might want to abbreviate ls memo.ab memo.ac without picking up "memo.ad", memo.ae", etc. You can match one of a set of particular characters by putting them in brackets "[]" in the list you use with "ls". For example, [bc] matches either b or c but no other letters, so "ls memo.a[bc]" is the abbreviation for "ls memo.ab memo.ac". You can have as many characters as needed between [ and ]. Type the "ls" command that recognizes a1cat a2cat a3cat and no other files. Then type "ready". #create a1bat #create a1cat #create a2cat #create a3cat #create a4cat #create acat #copyin #user #uncopyin #match ls a[123]cat #match ls a[1-3]cat #match ls a1cat a2cat a3cat You were supposed to use a[123]cat. Imagine doing it your way with 10 files. #log #next 8.1a 10 8.2a 5
