It *does* do exactly what the man page says. You just have to understand the "context" in which it is saying it. Let me complete my thought. Even take the "ls" command as an example. [egreshko@meimei test-dir]$ ls test test1 test2 [egreshko@meimei test-dir]$ ls -a . .. test test1 test2 .test3 .test4 .test5 [egreshko@meimei test-dir]$ ls * test test1 test2 [egreshko@meimei test-dir]$ shopt -s dotglob [egreshko@meimei test-dir]$ ls * test test1 test2 .test3 .test4 .test5 -- Conjecture is just a conclusion based on incomplete information. It isn't a fact.
