7.7.3 The Entry in 'sheets.map'
-------------------------------

The last touch is to include the pattern rules about 'ChangeLog' files
(which could appear as 'ChangeLog.old' etc.)  in 'sheets.map':
     # ChangeLog files
     chlog:  /ChangeLog*/

   This won't work...  Well, not always.  Not for instance if you print
'misc/ChangeLog'.  This is not a bug, but truly a feature, since
sometimes one gets more information about the type of a file from its
path, than from the file name.

   Here, to match the preceding path that may appear, just use '*':
     # ChangeLog files
     chlog:  /*ChangeLog*/

If you want to be more specific ('FooChangeLog' should not match), use:
     # ChangeLog files
     chlog:  /ChangeLog*/ /*\/ChangeLog*/
