Description : converts wildcard expressions to Perl regular expressions
(as created by dh-make-perl)
In many situations, users may want to specify patterns to match but don't
need the full power of regexps. Wildcards make one of those sets of
simplified rules. Regexp::Wildcards converts wildcard expressions to Perl
regular expressions, so that you can use them for matching.
.
It handles the * and ? jokers, as well as Unix bracketed alternatives {,},
but also % and _ SQL wildcards. If required, it can also keep original (...)
groups or ^ and $ anchors. Backspace (\) is used as an escape character.
.
Typesets that mimic the behaviour of Windows and Unix shells are also
provided.
