in reply to One liner with globs on Windows to parse .srt files

Hello LanX,

Sure! What more elengant than have a whole perl distro dedicated to this? :)

Using MinGW to build perl on windows forcing it to expand * into glob in cmd.exe

    Thanks, but this looks easier to me

    d:\tmp>set PERL5OPT=-MWin32::Autoglob

d:\tmp>perl -E"say qq(@ARGV)" t_*.pl
t_dump_folding.pl t_export_var.pl t_unicode.pl

d:\tmp>

    [download]

    and has the benefit that I can localize the effect to terminals which have this option activated.

    please note that sitecustomize.pl could be used for global settings of an installation, without the need to recompile Perl.
