'?' is a regular expression quantifier, meaning "zero or more of the
preceeding token". If you want to match a string with a literal
question mark in it, you'll have to escape the question mark "\?" or
put it in a character class "[?]":

ought to catch "{Filename?}" if that's what you're trying to do.
