Re: Filenames with "^"

by Bernhard Sander <fuchs@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > May 31, 2007 at 02:16 PM

Hi Gene,

>>The caret is used as a character modifier in the command window - it 
>>allows characters which might be interpreted as commands to be used as 
>>literals.  In parsing "ccli^^^.dbf', the first caret is a command 
>>character: ignore the command aspect of the following character, which 
>>is the second caret - the one that gets included in the file name.  The 
>>third caret, like the first, gets stripped as a command, and the '.' is 
>>treated (like the second caret) as a non-command (literal) character.
