What do you mean by "globbing support"? There has never been globbing support in ack. Any globbing is the responsibility of the shell. xoxo, Andy	[reply]

`ack` 1.96 seems to have had support for globbing, and that's useful because on Windows, the shell does not do glob expansion. `ack` 2.08 seems to lack support for globbing.	[reply]

Are you saying that you used to be able to say "ack foo *.pl" in 1.96? If this is a feature that's gone missing, please report it in the GitHub issue tracker. https://github.com/petdance/ack2/issues xoxo, Andy	[reply]
