Subject: RE: Help: backup Noteworthy files at DOS prompt?
Another technique you could use in Windows (assuming you have at least Win95 installed) is to click on Start/Find/Files or Folders, then enter *.nwc as the search criterion. The resulting list can be handled exactly like any Windows Explorer list, and it has the advantage of being able to list the files wherever they might be and to limit the search by date and/or size. Note that, unlike the use of Xcopy in DOS, the subdirectories will not be reproduced on your A; drive when you perform a copy from this listing.
