in reply to Glob Me (well, bash me)

Randal's right ... you can't change the glob shell without recompiling Perl.

However, if you combine File::KGlob with assignment to *CORE::GLOBAL::glob, you have just about as good a substitute for recompilation as you're likely to find.

    I think via:
    *CORE::GLOBAL::glob= \&File::KGlob::glob;
    and, yes, it should change the way <*.c> behave everywhere. This is just the type of thing that I couldn't do in File::KGlob when I wrote it and that I should add to File::KGlob since it still seems to be of use.
