Hi, bash!
Sometimes, (like in a source directory), I want to ls files whose name
begins with a capital letter, and so do this:
% ls [A-Z]*
. Sadly, ls ignores my intentions and undiscerningly prints a list of
all files whose names begin with a letter, big or small.
Yes, I've read the fine manual and tried:
% shopt -u nocaseglob
, but to no avail. Am I missing something obvious, or have I hit a bug?
Thanks in advance for any help!
