adding operations ?

Wildcards works fine.

C:\>jar cvf z.jar Z*.class
added manifest
adding: Z1.class(in = 204) (out= 118)(deflated 42%)
adding: Z2.class(in = 204) (out= 118)(deflated 42%)
adding: Z3.class(in = 204) (out= 118)(deflated 42%)

if you post what error you actually get instead of
"an error about non-existing files/folders", then we may be
able to tell you what the problem is.
