I am having some minor troubles with diff. I have a directory filled with .C and
.H files, as well as some things such as .O, C files that arn't part of the new
program, and a few .bat files. I don't want all these unnecessary files to be in
my diff file, but I can't seem to get diff to read specific files. It won't
accept wildcards becuase of globbing, and if I put the string in " so it won't
glob, it complains the file *.c does not exist.

Is there a way to make it read specific files - a response file perhaps?
