## glob

    glob expr

Performs filename expansion (globbing) on expr, returning the next successive name on each call. If expr is omitted, `$_` is `glob`bed instead. This is the internal function implementing the `<*>` operator, except that it may be easier to type this way.

The `glob` function is not related to the Perl notion of typeglobs, other than that they both use a `*` to represent multiple items.
