What does the `?` mean?
- Zecc 11y agoI'm not the parent commenter and I'm not on a Mac, but I assume it's the bash glob for a single character match (much like * matches multiple characters, ? matches a single character). Which means the actual file path should be something like `/dev/rdisk0`. Edit: oh, I guess you meant the ? in `bs=?M`, in which case I don't know. Probably damurdock's way of not committing to a particular value in their post.
- duaneb 11y agoActually you answered it correctly the first time; I've never used `?` globbing before. TIL!
