Attached is a patch to glob.c to allow case-insensitive globbing when a program is run from a Windows shell. It's nothing special -- one extra #include and a couple tolowers. I didn't change the set matching so you would still have a little control over things: ----------------------------------------- [C:\]ls a* arcldr.exe arcsetup.exe [C:\]ls A* arcldr.exe arcsetup.exe [C:\]ls [a]* arcldr.exe arcsetup.exe [C:\]ls [A]* ls: [A]*: No such file or directory [C:\]bash bash-2.04$ ls a* arcldr.exe arcsetup.exe bash-2.04$ ls A* ls: A*: No such file or directory ----------------------------------------- How do I feel about this patch? Well, I won't be heartbroken if it's ignored.
