/*  $Revision: 1.2 $
**
**  Do shell-style pattern matching for ?, \, [], and * characters.
**  Might not be robust in face of malformed patterns; e.g., "foo[a-"
**  could cause a segmentation violation.  It is 8bit clean.
**
**  Written by Rich $alz, mirror!rs, Wed Nov 26 19:03:17 EST 1986.
**  Rich $alz is now <rsalz@osf.org>.
**  April, 1991:  Replaced mutually-recursive calls with in-line code
**  for the star character.
**
**  Special thanks to Lars Mathiesen <thorinn@diku.dk> for the ABORT code.
**  This can greatly speed up failing wildcard patterns.  For example:
**	pattern: -*-*-*-*-*-*-12-*-*-*-m-*-*-*
**	text 1:	 -adobe-courier-bold-o-normal--12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-1
**	text 2:	 -adobe-courier-bold-o-normal--12-120-75-75-X-70-iso8859-1
**  Text 1 matches with 51 calls, while text 2 fails with 54 calls.  Without
**  the ABORT code, it takes 22310 calls to fail.  Ugh.  The following
**  explanation is from Lars:
**  The precondition that must be fulfilled is that DoMatch will consume
**  at least one character in text.  This is true if *p is neither '*' nor
**  '\0'.)  The last return has ABORT instead of FALSE to avoid quadratic
**  behaviour in cases like pattern "*a*b*c*d" with text "abcxxxxx".  With
**  FALSE, each star-loop has to run to the end of the text; with ABORT
**  only the last one does.
**
**  Once the control of one instance of DoMatch enters the star-loop, that
**  instance will return either TRUE or ABORT, and any calling instance
**  will therefore return immediately after (without calling recursively
**  again).  In effect, only one star-loop is ever active.  It would be
**  possible to modify the code to maintain this context explicitly,
**  eliminating all recursive calls at the cost of some complication and
**  loss of clarity (and the ABORT stuff seems to be unclear enough by
**  itself).  I think it would be unwise to try to get this into a
**  released version unless you have a good test data base to try it out
**  on.
