The functionality is already in jEdit core, but I don't think it is  
exposed on any of the search dialogs (I use the default one built into  
jEdit).

import org.gjt.sp.util.StandardUtilities;

String glob = "some*search";
String reString = StandardUtilities.globToRE(glob));

 From there you can use the standard Java RE classes.
