Unfortunatelly, even * wouldn't help for files without any extension - it's a bug in the wildcard matching  :(.
It will be fixed soon. (And if it worked, yes, you would have to use * to match files without any extension.)

Hi Igor, thanks..
äähm.. I have to use * ?
that could be a ressource-eater..
won't it ever be possible to use something like "   " (3 spaces)  ???
