The new versions of SQ and USQ do allow wild cards, so FLS.COM is no
longer needed.  WILDEXP.C version 1.6 is used, I believe, and it
contains a "safe limit" to the number of wild card filenames to be
matched.  This is to prevent the overflow of the names buffer into
data areas.  This of course means that USQ *.* on a hard disk with 500
files on it will result in processing of only the "safe limit number"
of files, which I believe is 200 names.
