function list = ssgrep (expression, index)
%SSGREP search for matrices in the SuiteSparse Matrix Collection.
% ssgrep returns a list of Problem id's whose Problem.name string matches an
% expression.  With no output arguments, the list is displayed.  Otherwise, it
% is returned as a list of integer id's.
%
% Example:
%   ssgrep ('HB') ;         % all matrices in the HB group
%   ssgrep ('\<B*') ;       % all matrices in groups starting with the letter B
%   ssgrep ('bp') ;         % all bp matrices (in the HB group)
%   ssgrep ('[0-9]') ;      % all matrices with a digit in their name
%   ssgrep ('c-') ;         % all c-* optimization matrices (in 2 groups)
%
% An optional 2nd input argument is the SuiteSparse index, which is a little
% faster if ssgrep is used multiple times.  With no input arguments, all
% Problems are listed.
%
%   index = ssget ;
%   ssgrep ('HB/*', index) ;
%
% See also regexp, ssget.
