Re: [Filecaddy-general] Feature Request (was Type Down and Case Sensitivity)

[Tom W. <vis...@ea...>]

Please consider adding wildcards to file selections.  For example, I use 
the Magellan Map Companion application, which was bundled with Magellan GPS 
Companion (GPS receiver for the Visor).  The data files for the application 
are named "MagellanDB...", where "..." is is a 20-digit number (possibly 
some sort of coordinate?).  A single county can require twenty (or more!) 
of these files -- the Palm filenames do not indicate a town, city, or 
county as the .prc files do.  In order to load a new area into RAM, I need 
to delete the currently loaded files -- I just selected 43 files one at a 
time in order to delete three Upstate NY counties (Oneida County alone 
requires 23 files...).  I would like to be able to enter a string such as 
"Mag*" to select all of the Map Companion data files for deletion (or any 
other operation) from RAM.  This could be added as an additional option 
under the "Select" button, where "Select All", "Select None", and "Invert 
Selection" are the current options.

Thanks,
Tom
