Find files

Post by ThunderWarrior »

Hello friends,

How can I search files with some concrete character or string?

Example:
I have 4 files:
master01.jpg
master02.jpg
master#3.jpg
master#4.jpg

What code can I use to search the files with "#" only?
And What code for all files without "#" only?

Thanks

  2. Filename:

    Code: Select all

    *#*
