/** \file wildcard.h
My own globbing implementation. Needed to implement this instead
of using libs globbing to support tab-expantion of globbed
paramaters.

/*
These constants are outside the 31 bit character space of USC4,
thogh they may clash with WEOF. I need to use characters outside of
the regular character space to represent wildcards and such,
in order to do backslash removal before wildcard matching.

/**
Expand the wildcard by matching against the filesystem.
New strings are allocated using malloc and should be freed by the caller.
wildcard_expand works by dividing the wildcard into segments at
each directory boundary. Each segment is processed separatly. All
except the last segment are handled by matching the wildcard
segment against all subdirectories of matching directories, and
recursively calling wildcard_expand for matches. On the last
segment, matching is made to any file, and all matches are
inserted to the list.
If wildcard_expand encounters any errors (such as insufficient
priviliges) during matching, no error messages will be printed and
wildcard_expand will continue the matching process.
\param wc The wildcard string
\param base_dir The base directory of the filesystem to perform the match against
\param status flags for the search. Can be any combination of ACCEPT_INCOMPLETE and EXECUTABLES_ONLY
\param out The list in which to put the output
\return 1 if matches where found, 0 otherwise.
