Hmm... if you don't understand the difference - it does matter. The shell expantion is not that of simple wildcard. It is also of variables, command substitution, and more. For instance: cp *.a *.b is pointless (unless you happen to only have a single *.a, and in which case it will be bopied to the literal '*.b'. This is because 'cp' does not care about wildcard expansion. -- Tzafrir Cohen | tzaf...@jabber.org | VIM is http://tzafrir.org.il | | a Mutt's tzaf...@cohens.org.il | | best tzaf...@debian.org | | friend _______________________________________________ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
