  Help: Filename Completion
Filename completion can be used at the command line, which is explained here, and in a filename completion window.
When filename completion is used at the start of the command line, it will only match directories, executable files, and files with executable extensions, since these are the only file names that it makes sense to use at the start of a command.
Filename completion occurs in the physical order in which matching filenames are stored in the directory, the same order in which DIR /O:U would list them.

  Filename extension
A filename extension is an extra set of (usually) alphanumeric characters that is appended to the end of a filename to allow computer users (as well as various pieces of software on the computer system) to quickly determine the type of data stored in the file.
Filename extensions have been in use for decades, but they have gained common usage because the file systems included with DOS and Windows had severe limitations on filenames for many years.
Mapping filename extensions to content-types is then done using different heuristics, such as examining both the filename extension and the contents of the file.

 Filename extension - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Filename extensions have been in use for decades, but they have gained common usage because the file systems included with DOS and Windows had severe limitations on filenames for many years, which strongly encouraged the use of filename extensions.
Filename extensions can be considered as a type of metadata, though one of the most visible pieces of such information on modern computer systems.
The DEC operating systems internally split the filename into a "base name" and a filename extension, with the "base name" limited to five to eight characters and the extension limited to two or three characters; when a filename/filename extension combination was typed in commands, a period (.) was placed between the filename and filename extension.

 Filename class Reference
Adjusts this filename, which must be a fully-specified pathname beginning with a slash, to make it a relative filename, relative to the fully-specified directory indicated (which must also begin with, and may or may not end with, a slash--a terminating slash is ignored).
This named constructor returns a Panda-style filename (that is, using forward slashes, and no drive letter) based on the supplied filename string that describes a filename in the local system conventions (for instance, on Windows, it may use backslashes or begin with a drive letter and a colon).
A Filename is also aware of the mapping between the Unix-like filename convention we use internally, and the local OS's specific filename convention, and it knows how to perform basic OS-specific I/O, like testing for file existence and searching a searchpath, as well as the best way to open an fstream for reading or writing.

 December 1997/Filename Pattern Matching   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
Filename patterns are a simplified kind of regular expression designed explicitly for matching filenames within the context of a file system or operating system.
Filename patterns do not have the power or flexibility of full regular expressions, but they don't need to since they are used only to match filenames.
This is accomplished by assuming that the closure subpattern initially matches zero characters in the filename (starting at the current position in the filename), and then recursively attempting to match the rest of the pattern against the rest of the candidate filename.

 Statements : FILENAME
See Electronic Mail Option Values for the FILENAME Statement in the CMS Environment for the values that can be assigned to the preceding options.
A FILENAME statement reassigns a logical name assignment made by a FILEDEF command, provided that the PERM option is not specified in the FILEDEF command.
See Device Types for the FILENAME Statement in the CMS Environment to determine whether SAS issues a FILEDEF command for a device.

 The filename matching schemes in Win32 and DOS
That is, the filename matching in XCOPY (as well as the DIR command) is performed on both the longname and the shortname.
When this (/NP) switch is present, the filename matching operation will use the more precise filename matching method by selecting only one name (long or short) to match the filename.
This is especially true with XXCOPY which now has a lot more cases of filename matching situations: the Wild-Wild-Source, the exclusion specifiers, and the inclusion specifiers (e.g., alternate filename templates).

 ITCWeb: filename.doc
A: Because a hyphen at the beginning of a filename will be taken to be an option of the rm (remove/delete) command, this causes a special problem when you try to delete (or copy or rename) it.
Do this by putting the characters./ (which specifies the current directory) before the filename, as in rm./-badname Questions concerning deleting, copying, or renaming files whose names contain "funny" characters are among the most frequently asked.
Since the default for all three commands is to perform the action without giving you a chance to change your mind, be sure to either alias each command to contain the -i option which will query you for confirmation (this is the default at UVa), or use the -i option when you issue the command.

 FileName and Directory tags
By writing the FileName and/or Directory tags, ExifTool can be used to rename and/or move images into directories according to any information contained in the image.
Writing the FileName and/or Directory tags alone causes the file to be renamed or moved, not copied.
Note that both the FileName tag and the -o option may be used without a directory specification, in which case the directory with the next highest priority is used.

 Statements : FILENAME
Also, unlike a libref, you can associate a fileref with a file that does not yet exist; when you use the fileref in a FILE statement or command, the file is created according to your specifications.
You must then use the fileref and the filename in subsequent statements as discussed in Using Aggregate Syntax to Identify External Files.
An existing file of the name given in the FILENAME or FILE statement is opened and new data appended to the end.

 Tcl Built-In Commands - filename manual page   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
All Tcl commands and C procedures that take file names as arguments expect the file names to be in one of three forms, depending on the current platform.
Complete paths or filenames longer than about 260 characters will lead to errors in most file operations.
Another Windows peculiarity is that any number of trailing dots '.' in filenames are totally ignored, so, for example, attempts to create a file or directory with a name "foo." will result in the creation of a file/directory with name "foo".

 Filename Wildcards   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
The following characters are interpreted by the shell as filename wildcards, and any word containing them is replaced by a sorted list of all the matching files.
An initial "." in a filename does not match a wildcard unless explicitly given in the pattern.
A "." elsewhere in the filename is not special.

 Definitions
A filename is sometimes referred to as a "pathname component".
Filenames should be constructed from the portable filename character set because the use of other characters can be confusing or ambiguous in certain contexts.
This term is contrasted against the smaller portable filename character set; see also Portable Filename Character Set.

 Statements : FILENAME
When you are disassociating a currently-assigned fileref or when you are listing file attributes with the FILENAME statement, specify a fileref that was previously assigned with a FILENAME statement or a host-level command.
Use a FILENAME statement to write the attributes of one or more external files to the SAS log.
In this example, the FILENAME statement associates the fileref OUT with a printer that is specified with a host-dependent option, and the FILE statement directs PUT statement output to that printer.

 Panda3D API: Filename
Description: Returns the part of the filename beginning at the hash sequence (if any), and continuing to the end of the filename.
Description: Returns true if the filename is indicated to be a filename pattern (that is, set_pattern(true) was called), and the filename pattern did include a sequence of hash marks, or false if it was not a filename pattern or did not include hash marks.
When this is true, the filename is understood to be a placeholder for a numbered sequence of filename, such as an image sequence.

specifies that if the file that you reference in the FILENAME statement is unavailable, a requestor window is not displayed and an error message is written to the SAS log.
indicates that the file that you reference in the FILENAME statement is to be freed and reallocated if it is currently in use.
These attributes are either temporary (for the duration of the allocation) or new (to be made permanent).

 Filename Substitution
The C shell allows the user to specify a filename or group of filenames without having to explicitly type in the entire filename.
If a range is specified by use of a dash, each character in the range will be tried, as well as any other characters in the brackets.
While it may seem that every conceivable type of filename substitution has been covered, the C shell recognizes a special character that can be best described as yet another.
