Hi,
I know that I should use =~ to match regex (bash version 4).
However, the man page is not very clear. I don't find how to match
(matching any single character). For example, the following regex
doesn't match xxxxtxt. Does anybody know how to match any character
(should be '.' in perl) in bash.
[[ "$1" =~ "xxx.txt" ]]
Looks good to me.
