DESCRIPTION
       This utility procedure determines whether a string matches a given pat‐
       tern.	If   it	 does,	then  Tcl_StringMatch  returns	1.   Otherwise
       Tcl_StringMatch returns 0.  The algorithm used for matching is the same
       algorithm  used	in  the string match Tcl command and is similar to the
       algorithm used by the C-shell for file name matching;  see the Tcl man‐
       ual entry for details.

       In  Tcl_StringCaseMatch,	 the  algorithm	 is the same, but you have the
       option to make the matching case-insensitive.  If you choose  this  (by
       passing	TCL_MATCH_NOCASE), then the string and pattern are essentially
       matched in the lower case.

KEYWORDS
