PIX:XP User Guide

There are several ways you can import files from a folder. In this example, only .tif
files that begin with anim will be imported. The filename specification is “anim*”
where the ‘*’ means “match any characters”. This means that the following filenames
would be selected: anim1.tif, anim01.tif, anim001.tif, etc.

You can be more selective by using standard wildcards to specify the pattern. For
example, test???.tif causes only those filenames that contain three-digit numbers to
be selected. This means that the following filenames would be selected: test001.tif,
test002.tif, etc.; but that these filenames would not be selected: test01.tif, test0001.tif
because they don’t contain three-digit characters. The following figure shows the
result of importing the stills by this method.
