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