JOB LOG MONITORING SUPPORT FOR USING WILCARD (*) IN ANY MESSAGE STRING

Job log monitoring code supports the use of a wildcard (*) as part of the filter criteria. 

Job log monitoring however only allows this to be used as the beginning of a search string.

Example of supported definition:

DUMMY :
JLM_OFFSET=0
JLM_DDNAME=STDOUT
JLM_TOKEN=(1,'CCIC*')

Examples of unsupported definitions:

DUMMY :
JLM_OFFSET=0
JLM_DDNAME=STDOUT
JLM_TOKEN=(1,'*CCIC')

DUMMY :
JLM_OFFSET=0
JLM_DDNAME=STDOUT
JLM_TOKEN=(1,'*CCIC*')

Can job log monitoring be enhanced to allow the wildcard (*) to be used anywhere in the text string.
