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.

    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
