1 """Filename matching with shell patterns.
3 fnmatch(FILENAME, PATTERN) matches according to the local convention.
4 fnmatchcase(FILENAME, PATTERN) always takes case in account.
6 The functions operate by translating the pattern into a regular
7 expression. They cache the compiled regular expressions for speed.
9 The function translate(PATTERN) returns a regular expression
10 corresponding to PATTERN. (It does not compile it.)
