Two questions, if I may:

No, this is the Xy 3+ way of using the wildcard for any character: Esc X.
Those of us in the Xy 4 world just put in the same 3-byter that you see on
the command line.
2. What on earth does {<}CUA,03{>} mean? I've been through both manuals,
Tyson's book, and XPL.TXT and cannot find it.
It's the "For" part of a For/Next loop definition: which says, starting
here, CountUp to the value stored in 03 before going past LaBel A (that
label being the "Next" delimiter of the loop). Consider this one:

 ;*;
;*;
In the loop. ;*;
;*;
Out of the loop. 

That will produce:

In the loop. In the loop. Out of the loop.
