Where the original did not quote single letters at all, this uses a
pair of single quotes. Did you make sure it renders well in HTML
and manpage already or should I do that for you before applying?
I think what you wrote is accurate enough already, and those who
want to go to fnmatch(3) would do so not for accuracy but for
authority ;-) Perhaps s/accurate/detailed/?
