FindProg

Description #

The search phrase is NOT part of the filename. It is, instead, the leading characters in the file you want to search for. The output will be a space-delimited (separated by spaces) string containing the names of the files that match the search phrase. For example, say you had a few programs that start with “:CCN”. You would get all files that would match that if you did:

det(9,":CCN")

If you wanted to get a complete program/appvar file listing then you’d just omit the search phrase. You will get some oddly-named program files as the first of the results, since they are system-reserved program files with illegal file names.

A neat little example with this command is locating all ION-type files. For that, you’d use an additional command inline with this one.

det(9,det(17,"BB6DC930"))

That command uses the HEXTOBIN command to convert the hex to the binary that ASM programs (w/ION Head) are stored in.

Note: This command is not to be confused with GETPROGLIST, which outputs a string consisting of files whose NAMES start with the specified characters.
