Except by name and spaceship operator, so they are not completely unrelated

    huh? The numerical comparison (aka "spaceship") operator has nothing to do with either kind of globs.

        That's an instance of a glob operator. I suppose you might be refering to the <> token pair. What about it?

        I don't consider the following to show that the glob operator and typeglobs are related.

        1. The glob operator can be coded using the "<>" token pair.
        2. The "<>" token pair can be used to code the readline operator.
        3. The readline operator takes a file handle for argument.
        4. A typeglob contains a file handle.

        Updated: Removed original guess since it made no sense.
