Re^4: Globs and globals

Interesting, your code works, although I would expect it not to. I haven't seen this excerpt in documentation about local and globs so it's a bit of surprise for me, thanks.

There must be something about dual nature of globs - whatever experiment you devise it proves your theory, even if it contradicts other experiments.

I think it may be that `local glob` localizes the contents* of `*glob`, not the glob itself. The docs could be read to support that. Or maybe it's just that the superposition-like nature of globs means that their behavior is governed by the Heisenburg Uncertainty Principle. Yeah, that's it... =cut --Brent Dax There is no sig.
