Message-ID: <344C9727.BE7F19F@assured-digital.com> (raw)
Sorry, But I have more information regarding this.
If I use the ls version 3.5 and gnuwin32.dll (I don't know where I got
this but it is on our server) the wildcard searches work correctly.
I believe the bug (I will call it a bug because it works correctly in a
later version) lies somewhere in cygwin.dll
Thanks
Andy
BTW Please send mail directly. this group blows away my mailbox.
