Great tip!
But I have problems with the to= part of the regex pattern on Windows. The
file.separator on Windows is the backslash, which is the escape character
for the regex. Therefore the file will include patterns like 'foo\bar**'
instead of 'foo\bar\**'. And then the delete does not work.
Do you have some more magic to make it work on Windows as well?
Thanks,
Daniel
