Hmmm... the \* method is more likely to work on a non-regular expression environment (glob and substr match) if someone tries to copy the technique. I'm not enthusiastic about using a regular expression here, especially as what we have seems to work. In the past, I advocated changing the "*" default to "x" as that would be much easier for users, but it's probably a bad idea to ever change that. Side note: I would favor reducing the number of stars from 15 to 10. Daniel -- Daniel Quinlan http://www.pathname.com/~quinlan/
