Simple Python Script to retrieve Files based on an given pattern.

After the project has been downloaded the file Lits.txt inside of the folder "Input" can be changed, this file contains the pattern or the patterns that the user wants to find/copy should be wrote on the file, different patterns on diffent lines:

*.pdf

*Nunes.pdf

BigDataCracker.*
