/CHARACTERISTICS=(characteristic,...)

    This qualifier is used to select files by their
    characteristics. The possible characteristics are :

    o  BADACL     : files marked with a bad ACL list
    o  BADBLOCK   : files marked with Bad Blocks
    o  BESTTRY    : files marked contiguous-best-try
    o  CONTIGUOUS : files which are contiguous
    o  DIRECTORY  : files marked as a directory file
    o  ERASE      : erase file before deletion
    o  LOCKED     : files with the deacces lock bit set
    o  MARKED     : files marked for deletion
    o  NOBACKUP   : files marked as NoBackup
    o  NOCHARGE   : files marked as NOCHARGE
    o  NOMOVE     : files marked as NOMOVE
    o  SPOOL      : spool files
    o  SCRATCH    : files marked as scratch files
    o  NOSHELVABLE: files marked a noshelvable
    o  ISSHELVED  : files which are shelved

    DFU will use a logical AND to select files, that is
    if several characteristics are specified DFU will only return
    files which have all these characteristics set. To overrule
    this, use the MATCH=OR keyword, eg:

      SEARCH device/CHAR=(DIRECTORY,NOBACKUP,MATCH=OR)
