*.ZIP *.ARJ *.* COMMAND.COM IO.SYS MSDOS.SYS AUTOEXEC.BAT CONFIG.SYS [EOF] >---( EXPLAINATION )---------------------------------------------------------< On each line put a string which user cannot enter when he's asked to give a filename (with wildcards) to flag. Comes in handy when you have lamers on your board who enter *.ZIP or something. Leave an [EOF] at the end so the PPE knows where to stop reading.
