I don't know that that's true; I know zsh uses this but I'm not familiar with any other tools that do. Anyway, GNU make uses the GLIBC globbing library, essentially verbatim. If that library is modified to support this feature, then GNU make will use it also. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
