    Allow '*' pattern character to be used mid-string (not just beg or end) · 3826d0cd
    Rob Swindell authored 
    Previously, the '*' matching pattern character could only be used as the beginning or ending character of a pattern string; for any other use, it was treated just as any other exact-match character.

Now, you can have exact-match characters on both the left and right sides of the '*', so pattern matching like the following is possible:

<*@gmail.com>
digital*man

Multiple '*'s are still not treated special (only the first/left-most '*" is), so, for example, "*blah*" will not likely produce the desired matching effect (use "blah~" instead for this case).
