I don't know about the Wild.pm module you were using, but I was able to get results similar to what you indicated you expected with the following code: 

use strict;
use warnings;

foreach my $pattern (@ARGV) {
    foreach (glob($pattern)) {
        print qq{$_\n};
    }
}

This was called from a Windows Command Prompt using Strawberry Perl as follows: perl test.pl *.txt I used a loop for @ARGV to allow for multiple patterns to be specified on the command line, to give a little extra flexibility.

Hope that helps.
