It would be useful to be able to use pattern matching for both the forbid{} and hide{} functions in modulerc.lua files on specific hosts. For example for long lists the following format isn't really sustainable for large enumerations of hosts and applications. forbid {name = "gpu-app01", message = "Modules requiring GPU hardware cannot be loaded on this node."} forbid {name = "Gpu-app02", message = "Modules requiring GPU hardware cannot be loaded on this node."} ... The following form would be much more useful. forbid {name = "^[Gg]pu-app.*", message = "Modules requiring GPU hardware cannot be loaded on this node."} Please consider adding this functionality and thank you. -- lawrence
