Charles and Info-ChiBolts,
Try this command:
kwal +s"[\**" sample.cha
There is one error in the sample.cha file and this command finds it. I
think the thing you were missing was the need for the backslash before the
first asterisk so that it would be treated as a literal asterisk and not a
wildcard. The second one is the wildcard.
The reason I am including the second asterisk is because we recently
opened up the on-line [*] code so that it could include some material, as
in
*CHI: Me [* I] is going.
The idea is that you can put the target right after the asterisk and the
space just to save the work of making a separate %err line. This seems to
work well for the majority of errors.
