  <title>Select files by pattern</title>

  <p>You can select files in a folder using a pattern on the file name.
  Press <keyseq><key>Ctrl</key><key>S</key></keyseq> to bring up the
  <gui>Select Items Matching</gui> window. Type in a pattern using
  common parts of the file names plus wild card characters. There are
  two wild card characters available:</p>

  <list style="compact">
    <item><p><file>*</file> matches any number of any characters, even
    no characters at all.</p></item>
    <item><p><file>?</file> matches exactly one of any character.</p></item>
  </list>

  <p>Örneğin:</p>

  <list>
    <item><p>If you have an OpenDocument Text file, a PDF file, and an
    image that all have the same base name <file>Invoice</file>, select
    all three with the pattern</p>
    <example><p><file>Fatura.*</file></p></example></item>

    <item><p>If you have some photos that are named like
    <file>Vacation-001.jpg</file>, <file>Vacation-002.jpg</file>,
    <file>Vacation-003.jpg</file>; select them all with the pattern</p>
    <example><p><file>Tatil-???.jpg</file></p></example></item>

    <item><p>If you have photos as before, but you have edited some of them and
    added <file>-edited</file> to the end of the file name of the photos you
    have edited, select the edited photos with</p>
    <example><p><file>Tatil-???-duzenlendi.jpg</file></p></example></item>
  </list>
