HELPLIB.HLB  —  PEEK  Node Names, Wildcards
   Use of the standard VMS * and % wildcards within Peek/Spy nodename
   specifications is based on the correct configuration of the
   logical name PEEK_WILDCARD_NODES.

   This logical name is used by Peek/Spy to determine which DECnet
   nodes are available to be checked for a wildcard match during a
   wildcarded nodename operation.

   The multi-valued logical PEEK_WILDCARD_NODES should equate to
   the actual nodenames available to be checked, in the order they
   should be accessed, during a wildcarded nodename operation.

   The logical name PEEK_WILDCARD_NODES can be defined by the
   PEEK_DEFAULTS.COM file when starting up PEEK. PEEK_DEFAULTS.COM
   contains an example of the use of this logical name to control
   use of wildcarded nodenames.

   The PEEK_WILDCARD_NODES logical name as defined by PEEK_DEFAULTS.COM
   can also be superceded in any of the logical-name tables specified in
   LNM$PEEK_TABLE_SEARCH_LIST which is defined in PEEK_DEFAULTS.COM.
   This allows customization, for individual users or groups of users,
   of the nodes which are checked during wildcarded nodename operations.

   Example: $ DEFINE PEEK_WILDCARD_NODES NODE_A,NODE_F,NODE_C

   Placing the above command into one's LOGIN.COM would direct PEEK
   to check the nodes NODE_A, NODE_F and NODE_C, in that order,
   during a wildcarded nodename operation, to see if they match the
   wildcarded nodename specified in a PEEK command.
