please add an option to match basename without extension
Thanks for your report.
It is already possible to match a basename with arbitrary extension, e.g. {{{ locate -b 'config.*' }}}
Does that do what you need? If not, what exactly are you looking for?
thanks for your reply
I need to match against the basename without matching the extension
{{{ locate -b -r 'f.*b' }}}
the above must match {{{foobar}}} and {{{foo.b.ar}}} without matching {{{foo.bar}}}
