GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 570139
MATCH should perform pattern matching
Last modified: 2009-02-02 18:33:37 UTC
The string case of MATCH should, according to XL docs, accept patterns like "FOO*BAR". This requires type=0 (i.e., use first match) and can be implemented using the new bisection code. (The caching and pre-processing parts only, not the actual bisection!)
This problem has been fixed in the development version. The fix will be available in the next major software release. Thank you for your bug report.
