Re: Wild card "*" works for "echo" and "ls" but not "cd"

[Jan K. <jan...@ja...>]

Yes, that is known behaviour. In v2.4, cd commands are not actually
executed by the shell, but by php itself using the chdir() function,
so it does not do wildcard expansion. But in SVN trunk 'cd' handling
works very differently, and it should do wildcard expansion.
