Description
? Substitutes for any single character
and can be combined to denote
multiple characters. If used in a
pathname, it cannot replace a forward
slash (/). Use ? for specific alternative
spellings. ? substitutes for a single
character; ?? substitutes for two
characters; ??? substitutes for three
characters, and so on. Only names with
characters equal to the number of ? used
are processed. For example, cell?
substitutes for all names containing cell+
<one additional character>.
For example, cells and cello but not cell.
You can use ? within or at the end of a
phrase. For example, .xl? substitutes for
only names containing .xl+<a third
character>, such as .xls, .xlr, and so
on; wom?n substitutes for only names
containing wom+<a third character>+n
, such as woman or women; carbon
fib?? substitutes for only names
containing carbon fib+<two
characters>, such as carbon fiber or
carbon fibre.
* Substitutes for zero or more
characters. Can be used in truncation
and for multiple characters. If used in a
pathname, it cannot replace a forward
slash (/). Use * for all possible alternative
spellings and an unlimited number of
characters within a name.
