I need to list all files that have first char within a specific range.
If I use Powershell I can do this with
gci [a-c]*
How can I do it from command line?

You may use the following command:
dir /b | findstr /R "^[a-c].*"

Thank you very much. It's perfect. :) I can use even different ranges. ^[a-c|e-h].*". Thanks again. Commented May 22, 2011 at 11:47

This is a regular expression meaning "anything that starts from a-c range followed by zero or more of any characters (the dot)". I'm used to specifying the regular expressions that way, but actually findstr util doesn't require using the full syntax here, so you may omit the dot and the asterisk. Commented May 22, 2011 at 21:00
