Re: IFS backup

I tried a few things.  I could get it to ignore *.ft files, but not *.ft 
directories, nor the files in a *.ft directory (unless the file ended with 
*.ft).  *.ft, in real life, would be a directory not a file, so I guess 
that doesn't help you.

Maybe try the midrange-l?


md '/deleteme'
md '/deleteme/1'
md '/deleteme/2'
edtf '/deleteme/duh.txt'
CPY OBJ('/deleteme/duh.txt')
    TOOBJ('/deleteme/duh.ft')
CPY OBJ('/deleteme/duh.txt')
    TOOBJ('/deleteme/1/duh.txt')
CPY OBJ('/deleteme/duh.txt')
    TOOBJ('/deleteme/1/duh.ft')
md '/deleteme/2/sample.ft'
CPY OBJ('/deleteme/duh.txt') 
    TOOBJ('/deleteme/2/sample.ft/duh.txt')
Object copied. 
SAV DEV('/qsys.lib/rob.lib/rob.file')
    OBJ(('/deleteme/*')) 
    PATTERN(('*')
            ('*.ft' *OMIT))
   OUTPUT(*print)
