In my Linux class last night we were doing a review my typed in ls -m
[-d-p]* which returned the file Dog. Can anyone explain how this works?
The -m I understand places commas between the file names. I was under
the impression that [-d-p] would return any character between d and p
and that this statement is case sensitive. The * means that can be any
number of those characters. If could explain this as to why it returns
Dog I would be grateful, because my teacher doesn't have a clue why it
does that. Thanks.
