Wildcard Livecode 8

[Richmond]

Looking up 'Wildcard' in the online Livecode Dictionary (because the 
64-bit Linux version

is non-functional) one gets this:


>   wildcard
>
> name
> wildcard
> type
> glossary
> synonyms
> wild card,wildcard,wildcard expression,glob,globbing,globbed,globular 
> expansion,globular expression
> Related
> glossary: character <javascript:void(0)>
> description
>
> A symbol that stands for one or more characters <javascript:void(0)>. 
> The process of expanding a wildcard to match all its possible strings 
> is called globbing (after "global").
>
Which tells me nothing useful whatsoever; such as what the wildcard 
character might be, or how to

use wildcards in Livecode.
