Synopsis:
   $filter(<pattern> <word list>)
   $rfilter(<word> <pattern list>)

Technical:
   These function are used to filter out any items from the input list that
   do not match the given word (for $rfilter()) or pattern (for $filter()).
   If there are no matches, the entire input list is returned.

Practical:
   These functions are effectively the opposite of the $pattern() and
   $rpattern() functions.  The pattern functions return items that do match,
   while the filter functions return those that don't.

Returns:
   items in input list that do not match given word/pattern

Examples:
   $filter(*oo* booya blah foobar)             returns "blah"
   $filter(*oo* blah erf twiddle)              returns "blah erf twiddle"
   $rfilter(blah b* *oo* *bar)                 returns "*oo* *bar"
   $rfilter(blah foo* *ya *bar)                returns "foo* *ya *bar"
