Hello, Is it expected that --ignore arg does not apply on globbed FILE ? My goal is to avoid using grep or complex find args: > ~/.ssh :: ls id_ed* | grep -v "\.pub$"id_ed25519id_ed25519.localid_ed25519_ori > ~/.ssh:: find . '!' -name '*.pub' -name "id_ed*"./id_ed25519_ori./id_ed25519.local./id_ed25519 I tried -I (--ignore) and --hide : > ~/.ssh:: ls -I"*.pub" id_ed* id_ed25519 id_ed25519.local id_ed25519.local.pub id_ed25519_ori id_ed25519_ori.pub id_ed25519.pub> ~/.ssh:: ls --hide "*.pub" id_ed* id_ed25519 id_ed25519.local id_ed25519.local.pub id_ed25519_ori id_ed25519_ori.pub id_ed25519.pub Since help text says for both options is : do not list implied entries matching shell PATTERN I would expect it to occur after building the initial listing. When I remove the globbing pattern, it seems to work as expected: ~/.ssh:: ls -I "*.pub" ./config id_ed25519 id_ed25519.local id_ed25519_ori id_rsa.local known_hosts known_hosts.old~/.ssh:: ls -I "*.pub"config id_ed25519 id_ed25519.local id_ed25519_ori id_rsa.local known_hosts known_hosts.old Man page says nothing about conflicts with file globbing. My view is obviously that this is a miss, what are yours ? Thanks for your feedback-- Mathias M
