How shortsighted!
I was about too implement this functionality last autumn when
I discovered it's not available within win32. I dropped to
add it as I felt it was too much work to implement glob()
myself for it.
If someone interested in this is reading by, I know that perl
has its own glob() implementation for that purpose (dervied
from BSD). Though a) it's not trivial to get it run (read: I
couldn't) and b) I don't remember it's license model.
