+Wildcard Match provides an enhanced fnmatch, glob, and pathlib library in order to provide 
+file matching and globbing that more closely follows the features found in Bash. In some 
+ways these libraries are similar to Python's builtin libraries as they provide a similar 
+interface to match, filter, and glob the file system. But they also include a number of 
+features found in Bash's globbing such as backslash escaping, brace expansion, extended 
+glob pattern groups, etc. They also add a number of new useful functions as well, such as 
+globmatch which functions like fnmatch, but for paths.
+Wildcard Match also adds a file search utility called wcmatch that is built on top of fnmatch and globmatch. It was 
+originally written for Rummage, but split out into this project to be used by other 
+projects that may find its approach useful.
+Bash is used as a guide when making decisions on behavior for fnmatch and glob. Behavior may differ from Bash version to Bash version, 
+but an attempt is made to keep Wildcard Match up with the latest relevant changes. With 
+all of this said, there may be a few corner cases in which we've intentionally chosen to 
+not exactly mirror Bash. If an issue is found where Wildcard Match seems to deviate in an 
+illogical way, we'd love to hear about it in the issue tracker.
+Features
+A quick overview of Wildcard Match's
+Features:
+		Provides an interface comparable to Python's builtin in fnamtch, glob, and pathlib. 
+		Allows for a much more configurable experience when matching or globbing with many more features. Adds support for ** in glob.
+		Adds support for escaping characters with \.
+		Add support for POSIX style character classes inside sequences: [[:alnum:]], etc. The C locale is used for byte strings and Unicode properties for Unicode strings.
+		Adds support for brace expansion: a{b,{c,d}} --&gt; ab ac ad.
+		Adds support for expanding ~ or ~username to the appropriate user path.
+		Adds support for extended match patterns: @(...), +(...), *(...), ?(...), and !(...).
+		Adds ability to match path names via the path centric globmatch.
+		Provides a pathlib variant that uses Wildcard Match's glob library instead of Python's default.
+		Provides an alternative file crawler called wcmatch.
+		And more...
