changing pattern example

How would I define a changing pattern in the filesystem tag instead of  
this to

		<filesystem name="local" checkmodified="true" changingPattern="5.1">

that says anything that starts with "twc" and ends with "5.1"

I tried

		<filesystem name="local" checkmodified="true"  
changingPattern="twc*5.1">

But that didn't work.

This can work if you use the 'glob' pattern matcher (which require oro
in your classpath). Have a look at the Pattern matcher section in the
main concept doc page.
