What on earth is *1.* ???

Asked by _nn_ in MS DOS

Tags:

I stumbled on this while answering another question : I noticed that the 'dir *1.*' command returns me a lot of files which do not match that pattern. The only explanation I can imagine is that *1 has got a special meaning.

Can anyone shed some light please ?Start Free Trial
