in reply to perl glob

Under Windows, the "shell" would not expand the wildcard, but then you can simply use: 

my @files = glob $input;

    Even better: Win32::Autoglob handles globbing transparently.

    (Note that it does not handle globbing correctly on OS/2 and DOS, and you better don't set an environment variable named SHELL on Windows or else it will assume running under cygwin.)
