beginning.
•
$ matches the end of the string. It can be used only once in a keyword and must be at the end.
•
& matches any single character. It can be used for multiple times in a keyword, consecutively or
non-consecutively. It can appear at any position of a keyword, but cannot be used next to *.
•
* matches any string of up to 4 characters, including spaces. It can be used only once in a keyword
and must not be at the beginning or end.
