      From: fizzbintuesday@that-google-mail-domain.com              One annoying habit of windows is that it doesn't always distinguish       between       DIR C:\WORK       and       DIR C:\WORK\*.*              So if you want to list all folders of a certain name like TEMP       C:\Tech\Android\TEMP       C:\Tech\TEMP              then       DIR /S/B/AD C:\Tech\TEMP              will look only into       C:\Tech\TEMP              and since it doesn't contain another TEMP under it like       C:\Tech\TEMP\TEMP              the output is blank.              I can think of kludgey ways to get around that, but is there an elegant       way?                     --       Defund the Thought Police              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
