subject: A little batch file magic

Hi, everyone.

I'm trying to remember how to move certain files in a directory to another
¨directory in a batch file.  I want to copy the packets I get in in BT's
inbound ¨to a backup directory (that's saved my bacon before), but not all
of the other ¨files I get (TICs, ZIPs, et al).

I was thinking that this might do it:

for in (*.mo? *.tu? *.we? *.th? *.fr? *.sa? *.su?) copy * d:\backup

Is that right?  I really don't think it is (something's nagging me that
it's ¨missing)...

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Sean

P.S. Thanks for all the help with my previous question.  One thing I can
always ¨do in these echoes is learn...
