    759 This command allows the user to set up a mask which will be used during recursive operation of the mget and mput commands\.
    760 .sp
    761 The masks specified to the mget and mput commands act as filters for directories rather than files when recursion is toggled ON\.

    763 The mask specified with the mask command is necessary to filter files within those directories\. For example, if the mask specified in an mget command is "source*" and the mask specified with the mask command is "*\.c" and recursion is toggled ON, the mget command will retrieve all files matching "*\.c" in all directories below and including all directories matching "source*" in the current working directory\.
    764 .sp
    765 Note that the value for mask defaults to blank (equivalent to "*") and remains so until the mask command is used to change it\. It retains the most recently specified value indefinitely\. To avoid unexpected results it would be wise to change the value of mask back to "*" after using the mget or mput commands\.
