The patterns here are Unix-style “glob” patterns:* matches any sequence ofregular filename characters,? matches any single regular filenamecharacter, and[range] matches any of the characters inrange (e.g.,a-z,a-zA-Z,a-f0-9_.). The definition of “regular filenamecharacter” is platform-specific: on Unix it is anything except slash; on Windowsanything except backslash or colon.
