UNIX Wildcards

Miscellaneous Forums/MacOS X Discussion/UNIX Wildcards

I need this for the "Request File" command.

We know that DOS and Windows and all systems based on the DOS file system use "*" for a wildcard. But UNIX based systems do NOT seem to use that, at least MacOS X and Darwin do not.

Since I do need a "All files" in some projects of mine, I really need to know the Mac equivalen to the "*".

Can you help me on this?

it's * in all three platforms.

*EDIT*

although you might need to put the filename in quotes if it contains a wildcard

Then it's very strange. You know the filter parameter in the "requestfile" command.

If I give up "All files:*" then it works in windows but not on Mac.
Why?
