Name
glob
Synopsis
glob expr
Description
Performs filename expansion (globbing) on expr, returning
the next successive name on each call.
If expr is omitted, $_
is glob
bed instead. This is
the internal function implementing the <*>
operator, except
that it may be easier to type this way.
The glob
function is not related to the Perl notion of typeglobs,
other than that they both use a *
to represent multiple items.
