Hi all,

as I'm trying to give shell programming and things like that a start, I have
a short question related to the shell expansion:

I heard that it is possible to exclude things after using a wildcard like
./* for every file in the current directory. Am I right or did I
misunderstand something? Is there some place on the internet where I can
find things about expansions and such operations of the shell?

Thanks in advance,

Heiko

Hi,

I found the Advanced Bash Scripting Guide extremely valuable.

Hey,

thank you everyone. That was exactly what I was looking for and did not find. :D

Wish you a nice weekend.
