Hi everyone,
I have to check if a directory on a windows host contains files with
a specific extension.
If it was a Unix/Linux host, i just have to write something like that
i guess :
client-local.cfg :
file:`find /path/mydir/*.tst`
analysis.cfg :
FILE %(/path/mydir/*.tst) noexist
But how to do it for a Windows host? Is this possible ?
I tried this for example :
client-local.cfg :
file:`cmd /c "dir /b /s C:\path\mydir\*.tst"`
or
file:`cmd /c "dir /b /s \path\mydir\*.tst"`
analysis.cfg :
FILE "%C:\path\mydir\*.tst" noexist
But it doesn't work :(

I'm not sure how viable it might be for your environment, but I'd
consider either installing the cygwin utilities to create a more unix
like environment or doing the heavy work with python or (for me, more
likely) perl. either way would likely require some additional/external
tools which may have different implications for different people/groups.
