Re: Why approximate pattern doesn't match?



By the way, reading the documentation isn't *always* futile.

  When  using  exclusion  via  the  ~  operator,  approximate matching is
  treated entirely separately for the excluded part and must be activated
  separately.  Thus, (#a1)README~READ_ME matches READ.ME but not READ_ME,
  as the trailing READ_ME is  matched  without  approximation.   However,
  (#a1)README~(#a1)READ_ME does not match any pattern of the form READ?ME
  as all such forms are now excluded.
