Expanded Wildcards in DOS

OS : Windows 95

User Level : Beginner

MS-DOS in Windows 95 now allows for expanded use of the * wildcard 

symbol in that you can specify the wildcard BEFORE as  well as 

AFTER text to search for. For example, DIR *5*.TXT will display all .TXT 

files with a 5 in their name.
