Is there a real difference in an INCLUDE statement using \*.* vs \* ?

We are troubleshooting a backup problem (nothing is being backed up) and
the OBJECTS option on the schedule says INCLUDE \\server\folder\*.*

Is there a really good definitive document that picks through all these
kinds of wildcard patters to show what would be includes/excluded?  All of
the examples I could root out show using 1-asterisk/*  but none showed 2 *.*
