Pattern Matching

Pattern matching allows you to act on several items that have similar identifiers. For example, query the user information for more than one user when those users have similar userids

The following lists the pattern matching characters you can use:

*	Matches any number of characters from zero on up
%	Matches one character only

Examples

• To specify all filetypes that end with the characters HTML, use:

  *html

• To specify all users with a 5-character userid beginning with PRO, use:

  PRO%%
