Description
Regular expression
Select this option if you want to base the rule on a regular expression. Otherwise, the rule will be treated as a shell expression thus matching any character in file and/or folder names for each '?' character in the rule and accepting any sequence of character in file and/or folder names for each '*' character in the rule.
Rule
Enter the expression of the rule in accord with your selection of Regular expressions i.e. either a regular or a shell expression. Use the '?' character in the rule to match any character in file and/or folder names and the '*' character in the rule to accept any sequence of characters in file and/or folder names.
