NAME            glob  --  global



SYNOPSIS        --



DESCRIPTION     glob is used to expand arguments to the shell

                containing "*" or "?".  It is passed the argument

                list containing the metacharacters; glob expands

                the list and calls the command itself.



FILES           --



SEE ALSO        sh



DIAGNOSTICS     "No match", "no command"



BUGS            glob will only load a command from /bin.  Also if

                any "*" or "?" argument fails to generate

                matches, "No match" is typed and the command is

                not executed.
