  30.           This utility procedure determines whether a string matches a
  31.           given  pattern.  If it does, then TTTTccccllll____SSSSttttrrrriiiinnnnggggMMMMaaaattttcccchhhh returns 1.
  32.           Otherwise TTTTccccllll____SSSSttttrrrriiiinnnnggggMMMMaaaattttcccchhhh returns 0.  The algorithm used for
  33.           matching  is the same algorithm used in the ``string match''
  34.           Tcl command and is similar to the algorithm used by  the  C-
  35.           shell  for file name matching;  see the Tcl manual entry for
  36.           details.
