Excluding some files from File wildcard set
At last I want to exclude some files from the set of files being matched by a wildcard. Suppose I have a command

File C:\project\blabla\bin\*.*

which matches 523446 class files :-)

From all these files I want to exclude 5 files matched by

ab*2.*

How do I exclude them from installation ?
Or do I really have to code 523441 files statements
explicitly in this case ?

Thx
Thomas

Not a nice solution, but it works:
Delete those five files afterwards.

This is not possible. Maybe you can create a small app that temporary moves them to another directory and execute it using !system, or move them manually.
