Actually yes!  I wanted to delete all files starting with % 
and am having problems.  DOS doesn't want to delete a file with a %.
It means like a space to it.  del %*.* means *.*  Weird!  Now I'm going
to have to enter Linux and do it the normal way.  (Linux is the only
way I managed to delete an OS/2 garbage file.  Linux is cool:-)
