Comment

LIST4 allows you to specify English selection criteria, normally used with the LIST command, to select items. Note, however, that if you specify an attribute for output, you must also specify the I option (or ID-SUPP) to suppress the display of item-ids.

Refer to the English Reference for information on the selection criteria that can be used.

Example

:LIST4
File name =MD
