You can restrict files to be output. To do so, you need to specify file name pattern in the Include box and Skip box. You can type your own masks or select from the list. If you have selected anything then you can change the selection up to your needs.
By default Include box has "*" mask and Skip box has empty ("") mask. Such settings allow to process all files.
Use 2 wildcard symbols:
'*' - matches any number (even zero) of any symbols;
'?' - matches zero or one symbol;
To separate several patterns use semicolon ';' . Pattern matching is case
insensitive.
Example patterns are:
* | any file (default pattern) |
*.* | any file with an extension |
*.htm? | any html file |
*.gif; *jp?g; *.png | any gif, jpeg or png image |
manual_*.pdf | any pdf file, beginning with "manual_" |
*2000*.zip;*2000*.gz;*2000*.tar | any zip, tar or gz file, having "2000" in it |
*readme* | any file having "readme" in it |
