Robert,

I think someone already suggested to merely 'drop' the '.rdy' extension.
To which you replied that it does not work.

Below are the results of executing the suggested command on my machine
(MPE/iX 6.0 pp2):

:listfile /SYS/SUPUTIL/@/@;seleq=[object=file];format=6
 /SYS/SUPUTIL/test_dir1/file1
 /SYS/SUPUTIL/test_dir1/file1.bin
 /SYS/SUPUTIL/test_dir2/file1
 /SYS/SUPUTIL/test_dir2/file1.txt
 /SYS/SUPUTIL/vista.25d/SOLARIS.PS.tar.Z
 /SYS/SUPUTIL/vista.25d/cleanup.Z
 /SYS/SUPUTIL/vista.25d/install
 /SYS/SUPUTIL/vista.25d/install_remote
 /SYS/SUPUTIL/vista.25d/tfms.tar.Z
 /SYS/SUPUTIL/vista.25d/vista-solaris.tar.Z

Note that files with AND without extensions are listed.

Regards
Paul Christidis
