DOS files

The AIX® operating system allows you to work with DOS files on your system.

Copy to a diskette the DOS files you want to work with. Your system can read these files into a base operating system directory in the correct format and back onto the diskette in DOS format.
Note: The wildcard characters * and ? (asterisk and question mark) do not work correctly with the commands discussed in this section (although they do with the base operating system shell). If you do not specify a file name extension, the file name is matched as if you had specified a blank extension.
