Hi etcha,
>> help find
[...]
/any -- Enables the * and ? wildcards.

Case 1:
>> string: "xdefgjkljyjkljweruiouz"
>> find/any string "y*z"
== "yjkljweruiouz"
Case 2:
>> block-with-string: reduce [string]
== ["xdefgjkljyjkljweruiouz"]
>> find/any block-with-string "y*z"
== none
Should find's behavior be the same in both cases?
