function f = matchfiles(patterns,sorttype)

% function f = matchfiles(patterns,sorttype)
%
% <patterns> is
%   (1) a string that matches zero or more files or directories (wildcards '*' okay)
%   (2) the empty matrix []
%   (3) a cell vector of zero or more things like (1) or (2)
% <sorttype> (optional) is how to sort in each individual match attempt.
%   't' means sort by time (newest first)
%   'tr' means sort by time (oldest first)
%   default is [], which means to sort alphabetically by explicitly using MATLAB's sort function.
%   (note that MATLAB's sort function may sort differently than UNIX's ls function does!)
%
% return a cell vector of strings containing paths to the matched files and/or directories.
% if there are no matches for an individual match attempt, we issue a warning.
%
% this function should be fully functional on Mac and Linux.  however, on Windows,
% we have the following limitations:
% - you cannot use the '?' operator
% - you can use the '*' operator only once and at the end of the expression
%   (not in an intermediate directory)
%
% on Mac and Linux, if we run into the too-many-files limitation of the ls command,
% we will resort to the alternative mode described above, and this inherits the 
% same limitations.
%
% history:
% 2017/01/31 - switch to using Keith Jamison's fullfilematch.m implementation
% 2011/09/28 - if ls returns too many files, resort to alternative.  also, the alternative mode now allows sorttype to be specified.
% 2011/08/07 - allow empty matrix as an input
% 2011/04/02 - now, works on Windows (in a limited way)
% 2011/04/02 - oops, time-sorting behavior did not work.  bad bug!!!
% 2011/02/24 - escape spaces in patterns using \.  this fixes buggy behavior.
% 2011/01/21 - explicitly use MATLAB's sort function to ensure consistency across platforms.

function files = fullfilematch(filestrings,case_sensitive,sorttype)
% function files = fullfilematch(filestrings,[case_sensitive=true],[sorttype=''])
%
% Find files with wildcard matching.
%
% Inputs:
%   filestrings: string or cell array of strings with path(s) to search for
%       - Paths can include ? or * wildcards anywhere in string
%   case_sensitive (optional): Use case sensitive search? default=true
%   sorttype (optional): '' = alphabetical (default)
%                        't' = newest->oldest
%                        'tr' = 'oldest->newest'
%                        
% Outputs:
%   files: cell array of UNIQUE matching filenames
%
% Example: 
% > F=fullfilematch('~/somedir*/*.mat')
% F = 
%    '~/somedir/run1.mat'
%    '~/somedir/run2.mat'
%    '~/somedir/run3.mat'
%    '~/somedirA/run1.mat'
%    '~/somedirB/run1.mat'

% KJ Update 10/18/2016: Overhaul to allow wildcards in middle of path, and
%   to add sorting options (for use with cvnlab code)
% KJ Update 12/14/2016: Assume default directory='.' (pwd)
