  body: "Returns true if <em>path</em> matches against <em>pattern</em> The pattern is not a regular expression; instead it follows rules similar to shell filename globbing. It may contain the following metacharacters:"
- !ruby/object:SM::Flow::LIST 
  contents: 
  - !ruby/struct:SM::Flow::LI 
    label: "<code>*</code>:"
    body: Matches any file. Can be restricted by other values in the glob. <tt>*</tt> will match all files; <tt>c*</tt> will match all files beginning with <tt>c</tt>; <tt>*c</tt> will match all files ending with <tt>c</tt>; and <b><tt>c</tt></b> will match all files that have <tt>c</tt> in them (including at the beginning or end). Equivalent to <tt>/ .* /x</tt> in regexp.
  - !ruby/struct:SM::Flow::LI 
    label: "<code>**</code>:"
    body: Matches directories recursively or files expansively.
  - !ruby/struct:SM::Flow::LI 
    label: "<code>?</code>:"
    body: Matches any one character. Equivalent to <tt>/.{1}/</tt> in regexp.
  - !ruby/struct:SM::Flow::LI 
    label: "<code>[set]</code>:"
    body: Matches any one character in <tt>set</tt>. Behaves exactly like character sets in Regexp, including set negation (<tt>[^a-z]</tt>).
  - !ruby/struct:SM::Flow::LI 
    label: "<code>\\</code>:"
    body: Escapes the next metacharacter.
  type: :NOTE
- !ruby/struct:SM::Flow::P 
  body: <em>flags</em> is a bitwise OR of the <tt>FNM_xxx</tt> parameters. The same glob pattern and flags are used by <tt>Dir::glob</tt>.
