Examples
create a file containing a list all ucf files in a particular directory
The directory (folder) named "ucf_data" is searched for files whose name ends with ".ucf".
Files matching this pattern are saved to a text file named "ucf_list".
java -jar DirTool.jar -dir ucf_data -endsWith .ucf -list ucf_list
The contents of the file 'ucf_list' are
ucf_data/mni_01_hippo_l.ucf
ucf_data/mni_01_hippo_r.ucf
ucf_data/mni_02_hippo_l.ucf
ucf_data/mni_02_hippo_r.ucf
ucf_data/mni_03_hippo_l.ucf
ucf_data/mni_03_hippo_r.ucf
ucf_data/mni_04_hippo_l.ucf
ucf_data/mni_04_hippo_r.ucf
ucf_data/mni_05_hippo_l.ucf
ucf_data/mni_05_hippo_r.ucf
ucf_data/mni_06_hippo_l.ucf
ucf_data/mni_06_hippo_r.ucf
ucf_data/mni_07_hippo_l.ucf
ucf_data/mni_07_hippo_r.ucf
ucf_data/mni_08_hippo_l.ucf
ucf_data/mni_08_hippo_r.ucf
ucf_data/mni_09_hippo_l.ucf
ucf_data/mni_09_hippo_r.ucf
