Open multiple files
 
There are multiple files in the directory that I'd like to be able to launch at once in CLI for testing.
What command do I use to accomplish that?

Thx

That's a little vague. What kind of files? Text, html, images? Opening text files you would simply enter the name of the text editor followed by the name of the file(s). If you want some kind of automated process or want to open a specific type of file you'll need to post more info.

They are test virus files but the names are random and I have a whole bunch to execute at once so I'd rather not have to type the name of each file to launch it.
Is there a way to launch all the files in the directory at once without having to type out the names of the files such as using *?
