Suppose that I have a variable $x, I want to test if the content of $x
match the pattern 'abc*'. If yes, then do something. (The operator ==
doesn't match patterns, if I understand it correctly.)
Is there such a build-in feature in bash? Or I have to rely on some
external program such as perl to test the pattern matching?
