NAME
	bwild - Bacula's 'wildcard' engine

SYNOPSIS
       bwild [options] -f <data-file>

DESCRIPTION
       This manual page documents briefly the bwild command.
       This  is a simple program that will allow you to test wild-card expres‐
       sions against a file of data.

OPTIONS
       A summary of options is included below.

       -?     Show version and usage of program.

       -d nn  Set debug level to nn.

       -dt    Print timestamp in debug output

       -f <data-file>
	      The data-file is a filename that contains lines of  data	to  be
	      matched  (or not) against one or more patterns. When the program
	      is run, it will prompt you for a wild-card pattern,  then	 apply
	      it  one  line  at a time against the data in the file. Each line
	      that matches will be printed preceded by its  line  number.  You
	      will then be prompted again for another pattern.
	      Enter  an empty line for a pattern to terminate the program. You
	      can print only lines that do not match by using the  -n  option,
	      and  you	can  suppress  printing	 of  line  numbers with the -l
	      option.

       -n     Print lines that do not match

       -l     Suppress lines numbers.

       -i     use case insensitive match.
