FastFIND uses advanced wildcard matching:
* can be in middle of name indicating any number of characters
(*A*.* than means all files with 'A' in name)
more than one wildcard can be present on command line meaning "it matches,
if it matches first wildcard OR second wildcard OR third..."
! can be present before wildcard meaning "exclude such files"
(works as AND NOT)
/Ax[+|-] switch can be used to select files by attribute
x can be:
D .. Directory
A .. Archive
R .. Read - only
S .. System
H .. Hidden
/Ax .. don't care about attribute x
/Ax+ .. attribute x must be set
/Ax- .. attribute x must not be set
/S}x .. file must be bigger (or equal) than x bytes
/S{x .. file must be smaller (or equal) than x bytes
default is /AD-, these switches are ignored, if name does not contain
wildcards
Use following in [command]
%1-drive %2-path %3-name %4-extension %5-full path %6-directory
%DISK, %EXT, %PATH, %OPATH (path, no drive), %NAME, %FULLPATH, %HASH
(%HASH inserts "#" into command line, don't type # into command string)
Options:
/? help /I+ ignore case
/S- do not search subdirectories /C+ complete file info
/C- only file names /E+ only files NOT containing "text"
/B+ beep on end of every search /B- do not beep on end of long search
/Ynnn /Nnnn answer Yes/No on error nnn automaticaly
/K- do not check keyboard (default Ctrl=pause, Ctrl+Alt=break)
/F- use DOS for disk reads /T+ end after first matching file
/Dlist_of_drives search on specified drives when used *:
Example:
FFIND *:*.com *.exe !a*.* "Window" /DACDG [type %5]
Searches on disks A:,C:,D:,G: for files .com and .exe, that don't start with A
and that contains text "Window". Types every matching file.
