can escape characters using [..]. To match a * anywhere in a string,
for example:
x GLOB '*[*]*'
The [..] pattern must contain at least one internal character. So
to match a "]" you can use the pattern
x GLOB '*[]]*'
So to match the OP's original string he would need to use
'*1[[][]]1.txt' as his pattern?
With each of the square brackets to be matched escaped by a pair of
enclosing square brackets.
I haven't had much luck finding a detailed spec for the GLOB pattern
language. Most descriptions only show the basics. Does anyone know of a
good reference?
