[c-t]

speci￿es any letter from range c to t.

[e-g1]

speci￿es any letter range e to g or digit 1.

Examples of using c haracter sets are:

[A-C]

@ All ￿les that begin with the letters A, B, or

 

C.

 

myset[e-g1]

All ￿les that begin with the name

myset and

 

end in E, F, or G, or 1.

 

myset

All ￿les that begin with the name

myset and

[d-e1-6]

end in D or E, or 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6.

Up to a maximum of sixteen c haracters may be speci￿ed for each character set and brac kets are not allow ed to be nested.

A character set speci￿es a range for only one (1) ascii character. The range [a-d]@gets all ￿les that begin with the letter a through the letter d. The ranged [ad-de]may cause unpredictable results.

Since the hyphen (-) is a valid character for HFS syn tax ￿le names, it is allow ed inside a character set, immediately following a left bracket ([) or preceding a righ t bracket (]).

When speci￿ed between two characters, the hyphen implies a range of characters. When a MPE name componen t is a single @ wildcard, the@ will be folded to include all MPE and HFS named ￿les at that lev el and below. To speci￿y only MPE-named ￿les, use ?@ instead.

A ￿leset may be entered in any of the following formats and may use wildcard characters. Equiv alent MPE and HFS formats are grouped together as follo ws.
