Changing directory paths in Windows NT
Windows NT supports wild cards, such as asterisks (*), in your directory paths.
If you find that you work at the Command Prompt frequently, you might find it a lot easier to change directories by using a wild card rather than typing a long directory path name.
For example, you can use the command CD PR* to change to the "Program Files" directory instead of typing CD PROGRAM FILES.
The only catch to this technique is that if you have two folders that begin with PR, Windows NT will choose the first one it finds. In this scenario, you should use enough characters to distinguish between the directories.
Another technique you can use to change directories is to type CD and then press the [Tab] key. Windows NT will then cycle through each of the directories in your current directory in alphabetical order.
