Expanding files

I want to expand a bunch of .IN_ files (inf), well I think the expand utility supports the expansion more than one file at a time, at least if I read the description right.

It says it supports wildcards. So I tried /F:*.IN_ but it said file not found. =o

Erm, Winrar does this also? Kewl beans. :D

EDIT: Erm I guess it does, but I'm not sure what the correct switch would be for multiple files. :shrug:

Try:
EXPAND *.in_ /F *.inf

Well I did it in a different way, made WinRAR associate with .IN_ and I was able to select all the files and extract into a directory. :D

cmd prompt gives me the willies. :paranoid:
