Hi all,
The documentation of listfiles is not really clear to me:
"Patterns are given to the Unix ls or to the Windows dir commands
in order to get information about files."
With my limited understanding of unix/linux, I thought that the
wildcards (patterns) are expanded by the shell, then the result gets
passed to ls.
I don't understand what patterns ls is supposed to expand here.
Anyway, here is my issue:
- in a shell, I can do :
ls file_{10..15}.ext
and get
file_10.ext
file_11.ext
file_12.ext
file_13.ext
file_14.ext
file_15.ext
- but in the same directory, this pattern does not work with listfiles
under scilab:
listfiles("file_{10..15}.ext")
[]
Does anyone know the "patterns" that are supported by listfiles under
Windows, MacOS and Linux?
Should this info be added to the help file for listfiles?
Cheers,
Antoine
