Sweep (Execute command(s) per File or Directory)

A "sweep" program is one that generally processes a command in each directory and its subdirectories. you can perform similar tasks using the standard "for" command (it can match files or directories) as shown here: 

@echo off
echo ****************************************
echo *** Display all ".MM" scripts on C:\ ***
echo ****************************************

for /R c:\ %%f in (*.MM) do echo %%f
