PAL

Ptolemaeus Arabus et Latinus

_ (the underscore) is the placeholder for exactly one character.
% (the percent sign) is the placeholder for no, one or more than one character.
%% (two percent signs) is the placeholder for no, one or more than one character, but not for blank space (so that a search ends at word boundaries).

At the beginning and at the end, these placeholders are superfluous.

‘De XII signis que sunt in zodiaco et de sexu illorum et de aliis conditionibus eorundem. Signorum alia sunt masculini generis, alia feminini — prospiciantque se in quarto vel octavo vel decimo, scias te ipsam nunquam habiturum. Explicit iste tractatus.’
