For now, "*" is simple enough; but, if we add more wildcards eventually, then it gets messier; we'd have to add more possible values, which starts getting into defining a separate syntax, with a separate parser. Simpler to use XML tags and let the existing parser handle it. -- /============================================================\ |John Stracke |http://www.ecal.com|My opinions are my own.| |Chief Scientist |===========================================| |eCal Corp. |Campbell's has it wrong--it's "Never | |francis@ecal.com|underestimate the power of *chocolate*". | \============================================================/
