  15. Description: converts wildcard expressions to Perl regular expressions
  16. In many situations, users may want to specify patterns to match but
  17. don't need the full power of regexps. Wildcards make one of those sets
  18. of simplified rules. Regexp::Wildcards converts wildcard expressions
  19. to Perl regular expressions, so that you can use them for matching.
  20. .
  21. It handles the * and ? wildcards, as well as Unix bracketed
  22. alternatives {,}, but also % and _ SQL wildcards. If required, it can
  23. also keep original (...) groups or ^ and $ anchors. Backslash (\) is
  24. used as an escape character.
  25. .
  26. Typesets that mimic the behaviour of Windows and Unix shells are also
  27. provided.
