Greetings, Jay Libove!

> I've never seen this before.
> In a Windows CMD shell, Cygwin shell expansion, for example:
> ls *.pdf

> returns:
> ls: cannot access '*.PDF': No such file or directory
> (Indeed, any Cygwin shell expansion, when executed from within Windows CMD, produces this error. See below)

> ls *someotherwildcard* (that matches the same .pdf files) DOES return the expected file list.

Adding to the previous answers, in regard to "ls *.pdf" vs. "ls *.PDF" from
native shell, there's "glob:ignorecase" CYGWIN option that can amend your issue.
