-
- I seem to remember hearing of a program that would give a yes/no answer to
- whether a given string matches a given wildcard pattern.
-
- given '*el??' as the pattern, and 'hello' as the string, it would return
- yes/true or something like that.
-
- Does anyone know what it's called and/or where i can get it from (source
- required of course).
-
- thanks in advance
