=head1 NAME
perlglob.bat - a more capable perlglob.exe replacement
=head1 SYNOPSIS
@perlfiles = glob "..\\pe?l/*.p?";
print <..\\pe?l/*.p?>;
# more efficient version
> perl -MFile::DosGlob=glob -e "print <../pe?l/*.p?>"
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This file is a portable replacement for perlglob.exe. It
is largely compatible with perlglob.exe (the Microsoft setargv.obj
version) in all but one respect--it understands wildcards in
directory components.
It prints null-separated filenames to standard output.
For details of the globbing features implemented, see
L<File::DosGlob>.
While one may replace perlglob.exe with this, usage by overriding
CORE::glob with File::DosGlob::glob should be much more efficient,
because it avoids launching a separate process, and is therefore
strongly recommended. See L<perlsub> for details of overriding
builtins.
