Hi everybody,
I'm new here !
Here's my topic, and thank you all for your help and advice.As said in the
subject, I'd like to obtain a words' list relating to words containing
wildcard *, ?, #.
The reason is that I=E2=80=99m trying to migrate a dictionary from a platfo=
rm that
allowed me using wildcard *, ?, # associates with part of words (as a
single entry in my dictionary or in word sequences) to another platform
that doesn=E2=80=99t take into account such characters and force me to crea=
te a
single line for each declination. Using a snowball =C2=AB * =C2=BB allowed =
me in my
present dictionary, to capture all part of texts relating to these
variations (pluriel, gender, grammatical declinaison, etc.).

For example, SUPPORT* will mean SUPPORT, SUPPORTS, SUPPORTING, SUPPORTIVE,
SUPPORTER, etc.
While the following word pattern: *SUPPORT* will also substitute all words
with the substring "SUPPORT" in it, such as UNSUPPORTEDLY, UNSUPPORTED, etc=
.
An expression that includes several words may also be substituted by
joining the various words with underline characters. For example, the
expression "going out"  GO*_OUT.

But my needs go beyond the snowball as wildcards such as  *,  ?, # are
supported in my dictionary:  =C2=AB ? =C2=BB to replace any character in a =
word, =C2=AB #
=C2=BB to replace any number, etc.

Therefore, I need to migrate my actual dictionary (French words) that
contains thousands of rows with ITEMS containing wildcards:  is there a
solution that could allow me to give, for each such word, all the
corresponding words?

Thanks a lot for your suggestions,

Eric
