Re: Parsing XML files as text with collection()

Tangentially, I just took a look at the documentation for this, and saw

https://www.saxonica.com/html/documentation/sourcedocs/collections/

 More generally, the pattern is converted to a regular expression by
 prepending "^", appending "$", replacing "." by "\.", "*" by ".*",
 and "?" by ".?"

Is that a typo? I would think the regex equivalent of glob "?" to be
simply "." and not ".?".
