  Globbing pathnames.

  Globbing pathnames.

  Wildcard pattern matcher implementing the same rules as https://www.man7.org/linux/man-pages/man7/glob.7.html

  Note that wildcard patterns are not regular expressions, although they are a bit similar. First of all, they match filenames, rather than text, and secondly, the conventions are not the same: for example, in a regular expression '*' means zero or more copies of the preceding thing.

  Pattern syntax:

  A string is a wildcard pattern if it contains one of the characters '?', '*' or '['. Globbing is the operation that expands a wildcard pattern into the list of pathnames matching the pattern. Matching is defined by:

  A '?' (not between brackets) matches any single character.

  A '*' (not between brackets) matches any string, including the empty string.

  A '/' in a pathname cannot be matched by a '?' or '*' wildcard, or by a range like "[.-0]". A range containing an explicit '/' character is syntactically incorrect.

  An expression "[...]" where the first character after the leading '[' is not an '!' matches a single character, namely any of the characters enclosed by the brackets. The string enclosed by the brackets cannot be empty; therefore ']' can be allowed between the brackets, provided that it is the first character. (Thus, "[][!]" matches the three characters '[', ']' and '!'.)

  There is one special convention: two characters separated by '-' denote a range. (Thus, "[A-Fa-f0-9]" is equivalent to "[ABCDEFabcdef0123456789]".) One may include '-' in its literal meaning by making it the first or last character between the brackets. (Thus, "[]-]" matches just the two characters ']' and '-', and "[--0]" matches the three characters '-', '.', '0', since '/' cannot be matched.)

  Now that regular expressions have bracket expressions where the negation is indicated by a '^{', POSIX has declared the effect of a wildcard pattern "[}...]" to be undefined.

  An expression "[!...]" matches a single character, namely any character that is not matched by the expression obtained by removing the first '!' from it. (Thus, "[!]a-]" matches any single character except ']', 'a' and '-'.)

  One can remove the special meaning of '?', '*' and '[' by preceding them by a backslash, or, in case this is part of a shell command line, enclosing them in quotes. Between brackets these characters stand for themselves. Thus, "matches the four characters '[', '?', '*' and '\'.
