- !ruby/struct:SM::Flow::P 
  body: Returns the filenames found by expanding <em>pattern</em> which is an <tt>Array</tt> of the patterns or the pattern <tt>String</tt>, either as an <em>array</em> or as parameters to the block. Note that this pattern is not a regexp (it's closer to a shell glob). See <tt>File::fnmatch</tt> for the meaning of the <em>flags</em> parameter. Note that case sensitivity depends on your system (so <tt>File::FNM_CASEFOLD</tt> is ignored)
- !ruby/object:SM::Flow::LIST 
  contents: 
  - !ruby/struct:SM::Flow::LI 
    label: "<code>*</code>:"
    body: Matches any file. Can be restricted by other values in the glob. <tt>*</tt> will match all files; <tt>c*</tt> will match all files beginning with <tt>c</tt>; <tt>*c</tt> will match all files ending with <tt>c</tt>; and <b><tt>c</tt></b> will match all files that have <tt>c</tt> in them (including at the beginning or end). Equivalent to <tt>/ .* /x</tt> in regexp.
  - !ruby/struct:SM::Flow::LI 
    label: "<code>**</code>:"
    body: Matches directories recursively.
  - !ruby/struct:SM::Flow::LI 
    label: "<code>?</code>:"
    body: Matches any one character. Equivalent to <tt>/.{1}/</tt> in regexp.
  - !ruby/struct:SM::Flow::LI 
    label: "<code>[set]</code>:"
    body: Matches any one character in <tt>set</tt>. Behaves exactly like character sets in Regexp, including set negation (<tt>[^a-z]</tt>).
  - !ruby/struct:SM::Flow::LI 
    label: "<code>{p,q}</code>:"
    body: Matches either literal <tt>p</tt> or literal <tt>q</tt>. Matching literals may be more than one character in length. More than two literals may be specified. Equivalent to pattern alternation in regexp.
  - !ruby/struct:SM::Flow::LI 
    label: "<code>\\</code>:"
    body: Escapes the next metacharacter.
