If it's behavior isn't defined elsewhere in the documentation, it might be appropriate to include it in future versions as other users might also expect *NIX-like behavior. -- Duke Stephen Turner wrote: > On Fri, 23 Feb 2001, Duke Hillard wrote: > > > Assuming that TYPEOUTPUTALIAS isn't the intended command, > > my impression from the Analog documention page for Aliases > > (http://www.analog.cx/docs/alias.html) is that an asterisk > > represents one directory level.
