Hi!

Also MS-DOS 6.22 command.com is doing this?
I read, that something as "asdf*.*" work, but "*asdf.*" would
never work. It seems to be a feature ;-)
A very bad feature...

Bye, Flo

When using the command "del *.*~" in a directory where files were
present both ending with '~' and not ending with '~', I discovered
that FreeCOM (the latest version from fdos.org/kernel) treated the
command as "del *.*" and deleted ALL of the files in the directory
(after warning me that it would delete "*.*~").  I would consider this
very serious as VIM creates files ending with ~ as backup files and I
often use that command to get rid of those files.
