Provide a list with three different names like this:

Nested sequences are not supported, but you can use several ones next to each
other:
- "http://example.com/archive[1996-1999]/vol[1-4]/part{a,b,c}.html"
+ http://example.com/archive[1996-1999]/vol[1-4]/part{a,b,c}.html

letter:
- "http://example.com/file[1-100:10].txt"

- "http://example.com/file[a-z:2].txt"
