+.Dt FNMATCH 3
+.Os
+.Sh NAME
+.Nm fnmatch
+.Nd match filename or pathname
+.Sh LIBRARY
+.Lb libc
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.In fnmatch.h
+.Ft int
+.Fn fnmatch "const char *pattern" "const char *string" "int flags"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Fn fnmatch
+function
+matches patterns according to the rules used by the shell.
+It checks the string specified by the
+.Fa string
+argument to see if it matches the pattern specified by the
+.Fa pattern
+argument.
+.Pp
+The
+.Fa flags
+argument modifies the interpretation of
+.Fa pattern
+and
+.Fa string .
+The value of
+.Fa flags
+is the bitwise inclusive
+.Tn OR
+of any of the following
+constants, which are defined in the include file
+.Pa fnmatch.h .
+.Bl -tag -width FNM_PATHNAME
+.It Dv FNM_NOESCAPE
+Normally, every occurrence of a backslash
+.Pq Ql \e
+followed by a character in
+.Fa pattern
+is replaced by that character.
+This is done to negate any special meaning for the character.
+If the
+.Dv FNM_NOESCAPE
+flag is set, a backslash character is treated as an ordinary character.
+.It Dv FNM_PATHNAME
+Slash characters in
+.Fa string
+must be explicitly matched by slashes in
+.Fa pattern .
+If this flag is not set, then slashes are treated as regular characters.
+.It Dv FNM_PERIOD
+Leading periods in
+.Fa string
+must be explicitly matched by periods in
+.Fa pattern .
+If this flag is not set, then leading periods are treated as regular
+characters.
+The definition of
+.Dq leading
+is related to the specification of
+.Dv FNM_PATHNAME .
+A period is always
+.Dq leading
+if it is the first character in
+.Ar string .
+Additionally, if
+.Dv FNM_PATHNAME
+is set,
+a period is
+leading
+if it immediately follows a slash.
+.It Dv FNM_LEADING_DIR
+Ignore
+.Nm /*
+rest after successful
+.Fa pattern
+matching.
+.It Dv FNM_CASEFOLD
+Ignore case distinctions in both the
+.Fa pattern
+and the
+.Fa string .
+.El
+.Sh RETURN VALUES
+The
+.Fn fnmatch
+function returns zero if
+.Fa string
+matches the pattern specified by
+.Fa pattern ,
+otherwise, it returns the value
+.Dv FNM_NOMATCH .
+.Sh SEE ALSO
+.Xr sh 1 ,
+.Xr glob 3 ,
+.Xr regex 3
+.Sh STANDARDS
+The
+.Fn fnmatch
+function conforms to
+.St -p1003.2 .
+.Sh HISTORY
+The
+.Fn fnmatch
+function first appeared in
+.Bx 4.4 .
+.Sh BUGS
+The pattern
+.Ql *
+matches the empty string, even if
+.Dv FNM_PATHNAME
+is specified.
