I don't think so.  More likely it is because a wildcard specification is 
anchored at the beginning of a line unless you start it with a asterisk.  
When you wilddir, don't forget that what you ar matching against is the 
*full* path including a slash at the end.  


As an example (if I remove slashes and periods), if you have a file with a 
name "home-iora-recycle-Pics-Rio" in the current directory and you enter:

"ls recycle"

it is going to print nothing, but if you enter,

"ls *recycle"

it will print

home-iora-recycle-Pics-Rio

It may also print many other filenames that you do not want to see such as

home-abcrecycle-xxx
