VMS wildcards include the percent sign (%) to match any single character on a line, the asterisk (*) to match any amount of text on a line, the backslash and right angle bracket (\>) to match end-of-line, and so on. Example: The following commands find strings like "Bat," "bet," "b t," or "BUT" at the end of a line: Command: SET WILDCARD VMS Command: WILDCARD FIND b%t\> Usage notes: o The default wildcards depend on the system you are using---VMS or ULTRIX. If you want to use VMS wildcards on ULTRIX or conversely, put the relevant command in an initialization file (typically named EVE$INIT.EVE). See help on Initialization Files. o For a list of the available wildcards, use SHOW WILDCARDS. o On DECwindows, you can set VMS wildcards as follows: 1.
