| 64 | The <tt class="module">glob</tt> module finds all the pathnames matching a specified | |
| 65 | pattern according to the rules used by the <span class="Unix">Unix</span> shell. No tilde | |
| 66 | expansion is done, but <code>*</code>, <code>?</code>, and character ranges | |
| 67 | expressed with <code>[]</code> will be correctly matched. This is done by | |
| 68 | using the <tt class="function">os.listdir()</tt> and <tt class="function">fnmatch.fnmatch()</tt> | |
| 69 | functions in concert, and not by actually invoking a subshell. (For | |
| 70 | tilde and shell variable expansion, use <tt class="function">os.path.expanduser()</tt> | |
| 71 | and <tt class="function">os.path.expandvars()</tt>.) | |

| 79 | Returns a possibly-empty list of path names that match <var>pathname</var>, | |
| 80 | which must be a string containing a path specification. | |

| 82 | <span class="file">/usr/src/Python-1.5/Makefile</span>) or relative (like | |
| 83 | <span class="file">../../Tools/*/*.gif</span>), and can contain shell-style wildcards. | |

| 87 | <P> | |
| 88 | For example, consider a directory containing only the following files: | |
| 89 | <span class="file">1.gif</span>, <span class="file">2.txt</span>, and <span class="file">card.gif</span>. <tt class="function">glob()</tt> | |
| 90 | will produce the following results. Notice how any leading components | |
| 91 | of the path are preserved. | |
