Hi Timo,

no bug, user error: On every *ix you normally need quotation to prevent the
shell from file globbing (wildcard expansion) before involing programs, like

find GtkRadiant -iname '*.cpp' -print

USER ERROR!!!

This doesn't work in tcsh for example.

If you are using *.h in a directory which itself doesn't contain
a file that matches, sh doesn't expand the wildcard and sends it
unresolved to the application. tcsh doesn't do this, though, but
instead raises an error message:

	find: No match.

Cd into the include directory itself and try it again. You will
be surprised...

(It wasn't the unix-fault, it was a feature of the shell)

Weeh I seem to have noticed something like this before but not
reflected so much over it, bash seems to be able to do a smart
decision if it wants to glob or not..

Note that you sent this to a list, not an individual....

same place as the binary... run setup.exe, click the checkbox under the
"src" column next to the OpenSSH install option. If you've already got the
current version installed you may need to uninstall it then re install.
