Hi Peff,

I was working a lot with Java projects where the base name is often considered to be the part before a version number that is encoded into the file name, so I think it would be a good idea here, too. Essentially, it would be the regex
    ^(.*[/\\])?plink(-.*|\.exe)$
... and maybe we should actually do exactly this, use a regex? I know that many developers try to stay away from them, but if you can read them, they are an efficient encoding of expectations.

Ciao, Dscho
