Hi,

Just a quick observation - but first an apology: I haven't read the
thread, as I've only just subscribed, so this may have already been said.

I'm a bit surprised by this wildcard behaviour, as I would have assumed
"CD 1..." would have been picked up by "CD *".

I'd suggest that this is a bash issue, not one with ls: I get similar
behaviour if I use echo rather than ls.  I presume, when you use ls, it's
bash's job to expand wildcards in the command line before they're passed
to ls...

Cheers,

Nikhil.
