Copy mask and wildchars |
May be you don't want to copy all the files of a origin folder, but only files with a certain names or certain extension.
At this purpose you can use the "copy mask" text boxes and the wildchars ('*' or '?'), writing in the box the desired options.
* | Zero or more characters |
? | Exactly one character |
Some examples:
*.* | copies all files (any name and any extension) |
*.jp* | copies files with any name and extension that begins with 'jp' (jpg, jpeg) |
d*.* | copies all files that begin with 'd', any extension |
*.avi | copies only files with 'avi' extension |
???.* | copies only files with name three chars long, any extension |
??mov.mkv | copies only files like '21mov.mkv', 'xymov.mkv' |
