glob - expand filenames using wildcards

NAME

glob - expand filenames using wildcards


SYNOPSIS

glob EXPR

glob


DESCRIPTION

Returns the value of EXPR with filename expansions such as the standard Unix shell /bin/csh would do. This is the internal function implementing the <*.c> operator, but you can use it directly. If EXPR is omitted, $_ is used. The <*.c> operator is discussed in more detail in I/O Operators in the perlop manpage.

Beginning with v5.6.0, this operator is implemented using the standard File::Glob extension. See the File::Glob manpage for details.
