SWI-Prolog -- wildcard

Availability:built-in

True if String matches the wildcard pattern Pattern. Pattern is very similar to the Unix csh pattern matcher. The patterns are given below:

`?`	Matches one arbitrary character.
`*`	Matches any number of arbitrary characters.
`[ ...`	Matches one of the characters specified between the brackets.
	`<char1>-<char2>` indicates a range.
`{...}`	Matches any of the patterns of the comma-separated list between the braces.

Example:

?- wildcard_match('[a-z]*.{pro,pl}[%~]', 'a_hello.pl%').
true.

The wildcard_match/3 version processes the following option:

case_sensitive(+Boolean): When false (default true), match case insensitively.
