I am absolutely convinced that this is all extremely smart and wonder-
full. But what does it mean? I know I am not the brightest light around
this list, but would it by any chance be possible to translate this in
something resembling english, please?
I understand patterns, though I somehow doubt we are talking about the
same thing here. But simple strings, strings with classes of characters
sets of strings, wild cards and regular expressions....
Do I need to know about that?
