Hi all,

 

            I'm trying to write a little script to do some searches on
ASCII files.  I can get the script to work with a direct file name, but
not with wildcarding...am I doing something wrong, or just SOL?

 

 

This does not work:

:xeq grep.hpbin.sys '-lin "COMMERCIAL;" /PTC/ASCII/*'

GREP.HPBIN.SYS: input file "/PTC/ASCII/*": No such file or directory

 

 

 

This doesn't work either:

:xeq grep.hpbin.sys '-lin "COMMERCIAL;" /PTC/ASCII/@'

GREP.HPBIN.SYS: input file "/PTC/ASCII/@": No such file or directory

 

 

 

But this does:

:xeq grep.hpbin.sys '-lin "COMMERCIAL;" /PTC/ASCII/CPROG'

/PTC/ASCII/CPROG

 

 

 

TIA!
