Using Wildcards in the Copydelta Command
Previously the COPYDELTA command in HP SRC did not allow wildcard symbols
in the FILE or NEW parameters. With the addition of groupsymbols to HP
SRC, certain uses of wild card symbols are now allowed. HP SRC allows
any wildcard in the filename or the groupsymbol of the FILE parameter.
However, only the "@" wildcard is valid in the filename of the NEW
parameter. Furthermore, this wildcard is valid only when it is the only
character specified for the filename. An example of this is shown below.
Use of Wildcards in the "NEW" Parameter

The "@" is also the only wild card allowed in the groupsymbol portion of
the NEW parameter. If specified, it must be the only character and is
valid only if you are copying to another environment.
