.. function:: fnmatch(filename, pattern)
Test whether the *filename* string matches the *pattern* string, returning
:const:`True` or :const:`False`. If the operating system is case-insensitive,
then both parameters will be normalized to all lower- or upper-case before
the comparison is performed. :func:`fnmatchcase` can be used to perform a
:const:`True` or :const:`False`. Both parameters are case-normalized
using :func:`os.path.normcase`. :func:`fnmatchcase` can be used to perform a
case-sensitive comparison, regardless of whether that's standard for the
operating system.
