#    File:     fset.icn
#
#    Subject:  Program to do set operations on file specifications
#
#    Author:   Thomas R. Hicks

###########################################################################
#
#   The UNIX shell provides for the specification of filenames
#  using ``wildcards''.  Each wildcard specification may be
#  thought of as defining a set of names (that is, those that
#  match the specification).  Fset allows the user to apply the
#  set operations of intersection, union, and difference to
#  these filename sets. The resultant list may then be used as
#  an argument to other shell commands.
#
#  Fset's argument is an expression composed of legal UNIX file
#  specifications, parenthesis, and the following set opera-
#  tors:
#
#    &&   intersection
#    ++   union
#    --   difference
#
#  Because characters that have special meaning to the shell
#  occur frequently in the arguments used for fset, it is
#  advisable to quote the arguments consistently.
#
#  The use of fset is illustrated by the following examples:
#
#    fset 'g*--*.icn'
#
#  produces the list (set) of filenames for files beginning
#  with g, excluding those ending with .icn.
#
#  Similarly,
#
#    fset '*'
#
#  produces all files in the current directory excluding the .
#  and .. files.
#
#    fset '((*--*.icn)++c*)'
#  and
#
#    fset '(*--*.icn)++c*'
#
#  produces the complement of all filenames ending with .icn in
#  addition to all filenames beginning with c.
#
#    fset '(((c? && c*)))'
#
#  is a redundant, but legal, specification for all two-
#  character filenames that begin with c, while
#
#    fset '.*'
#
#  produces the set of filenames for all hidden files, exclud-
#  ing the . and ..  files.
#
#  Limitations:
#
#  Multiple command line arguments, formed by omitting the
#  quotes around the file set expression, are permitted.  Their
#  use is limited, however, since parentheses do not get past
#  the shell's command-line expansion.
#
#  Almost any legal file specification will work when enclosed
#  in quotes except that the simple grammar that is used cannot
#  handle blanks adjacent to parentheses.
#
#  File names that begin or end in ``questionable'' characters
#  such as *, ?, +, -, and &, probably will not work.
#
#  A file specification that, when interpreted by the shell,
#  produces no matching filename will be placed (unchanged) in
#  the result.
