If you type a response other than one of those in the list, DCL issues an error message and redisplays the prompt. Excludes the specified files from the search operation.

The matched strings are underlined with the underscore character. Hardcopy printing is accomplished by adding a carriage return and spacing back over the line to overprint the string or underlines. Note that this can as much as double the length of the line, and perhaps lead to truncation if the device buffer size is too small.
