Matches Pattern filter:
This filter allows you to specify a pattern to use when processing articles.
The pattern uses the standard Unix-shell style syntax using the characters * ? \ [ ] ^ -
* - match 0 or more characters. For example *simple* matches any string with the word 'simple' in it.
? - match a single character.
\ - match the next literal character. This is intended to allow you to match any of the wildcard characters. For example: Hello\? matches the word 'Hello?'.
[ ] - used in pairs, match one of the specified characters. For example: [Hh]ello will match the words 'hello', or 'Hello'. Specify a range using '-' such as [a-z] or [0-9].
^ - When following [ it means 'not'. It inverts the meaning of the specified characters. For example: [^0-9] means any character not 0 thru 9.
Remember to use * to precede and follow any pattern you enter to allow the pattern to be found anywhere in the string.
