Using delimiters to include or exclude files
When the volume or directory delimiters are not correct, it might cause INCLUDE and EXCLUDE statements to malfunction.
A platform-specific INCLUDE or EXCLUDE statement
contains syntax for everything
and all files under a specific
directory.
If you want to use an INCLUDE statement
for all files under a specific directory,
ensure that the slashes
and volume delimiters are correct. If you want to include all of the
files under a directory that is called home,
, see the following
examples:
Using the backwards slash “\” and the volume delimiter “:”
*include everything in the c:\home directory include c:\home\...\* *include everything include *:\...\*

Using the forward slash “/”

*include everything in the /home directory include /home/.../* *include everything include /.../*
