Words disappear mysteriously. That part says #1 can match a wildcard pattern literally (say "a*" will match the file named "a*"). This is new to me. I don't know if #3 can do the same. #2 can't match wildcards, which is known for some time. #1 and #3 can match index. The famous index does not have directories, so "Documentation" matches that directory well in #2, but won't in #1 and #3. "Documentation/" works in all three. [1] in the previous mail can be used to recreate directories, or we can just move the index to a tree-based structure. -- Duy
