class Glob
Glob matches globbing patterns against text. if match_glob("foo.*", "foo.bar") echo "matched\n"; // prints foo.bar and foo.baz $regex = globtoregex("foo.*"); for (array('foo.bar', 'foo.baz', 'foo', 'bar') as $t) { if (/$regex/) echo "matched: $car\n"; } Glob implements glob(3) style matching that can be used to match against text, rather than fetching names from a filesystem. Based on the Perl Text::Glob module.
