A path or a pattern match? For example, to list all the pdf files in
your current directory you would do
ls *.pdf
where * is a wildcard that matches 0 or more letters. The path is where
the files live, so to list all the pdf files in your documents folder
you would do
ls ~/Documents/*.pdf
The ~ gets converted by the shell to be your login account location. So
for me it gets turned into
ls /users/cblouch/Documents/*.pdf
so the ~ can save a lot of typing.

Hi.
I will have to write a path in terminal, but how do I do that. Which format to
write paths in. Please show me an example.
If I want to do a speciffic task for everything in this folder with a given
nickname that could e.g. be .mobi, how can I do that. I mean which command to
use before the dot in windows it is *., but how is it on the mac?
Best regards Annie.
