Re: quick howto-command questions?



Hello again tia,


Sorry if I sounded a little short-tempered in my last reply. It is a
little mind boggling. I did a touch .x.c and the following is the
result...


P3V4X:/usr/local/Temp/other# touch .x.c
P3V4X:/usr/local/Temp/other# ls *.c
one.c  two.c
P3V4X:/usr/local/Temp/other# ls .*c
.c  .x.c


As you can see, the .x.c file displayed in the 'ls' output for me...
hmmm.


Perplexed,

Jimmy Richards
