- What are the imitations on the "pattern" field for matching filenames
- in the cetables for OW3 ... everytime I try anything vaguely fancy
- either binder explodes, deletes what I have just entered or filemgr
- crashes before getting anywhere ! The manuals don't say a thing ....
- needless to say. At worst it would be nice to write a new "manager"
- to call to parse these entries but there is no information about where
- to start ... I would love to have full regular expressions
- available for the filename pattern matching, and a more expressive
- language for the content matching (multiple fields, etc).
