Nothing
#' Multiread
#'
#' Read in a collection of text files.
#'
#' The \code{extension} argument is not a general regular
#' expression pattern, but a simplified pattern. For example,
#' the pattern \code{*.txt} is really equivalent to
#' \code{*[.]txt$} as a regular expression. If you need more
#' complicated patterns, you should directly use the \code{dir()}
#' function.
#'
#' @param path
#' The base file path to search.
#' @param extension
#' An extension or the "*" wildcard (for everything). For example,
#' to read in files ending \code{.txt}, you could specify
#' \code{extension="txt"}. For the purposes of this function,
#' each of \code{*.txt}, \code{*txt}, \code{.txt}, and \code{txt}
#' are treated the same.
#' @param recursive
#' Logical; should the search include all subdirectories?
#' @param ignore.case
#' Logical; should case be ignored in the extension? For example, if
#' \code{TRUE}, then \code{.r} and \code{.R} files are treated the
#' same.
#' @param prune.empty
#' Logical; should empty files be removed from the returned list?
#' @param pathnames
#' Logical; should the full path be included in the names of the
#' returned list.
#'
#' @return
#' A named list of strings, where the names are the file names.
#'
#' @examples

#' path = system.file(package="ngram")

#' ### Read all files in the base path
#' multiread(path, extension="*")
#'
#' ### Read all .r/.R files recursively (warning: lots of text)
#' multiread(path, extension="r", recursive=TRUE, ignore.case=TRUE)
