The command you're showing DOES NOT do pattern matching! du -abh /home/steve/workspace v.s. du -abh /home/steve/workspace/* The later command is basically creating a list of files (a shell function) and doing a "du" on each file individually. Notice that if you use that command you don't get a summary of what is in the workspace directory. Also, note that the later command creates a sorted list. You are mixing functions of the bash shell and the command being run within the shell! -- Conjecture is just a conclusion based on incomplete information. It isn't a fact.
