NAME
Tcl_StringMatch - test whether a string matches a pattern
SYNOPSIS
#include <tcl.h>
int
Tcl_StringMatch(string, pattern)
ARGUMENTS
String to test.
Pattern to match against string. May contain special
characters from the set *?\[].
DESCRIPTION
This utility procedure determines whether a string matches
a given pattern. If it does, then Tcl_StringMatch returns
1. Otherwise Tcl_StringMatch returns 0. The algorithm
used for matching is the same algorithm used in the ``string match''
Tcl command and is similar to the algorithm used by the C-shell
for file name matching; see the Tcl manual entry for details.
