Bash Version: 4.0 Patch Level: 17 Release Status: release Description: When using [a-*] globbing options, the very last UPPERCASE letter is not matched, however all other ones are. Repeat-By: mkdir test; cd test; for LETTER in {a..f}; do touch $LETTER; done ls -1 [a-f]* | wc -l # returns 6, as expected for LETTER in {A..F}; do touch $LETTER; done ls -1 [a-f]* | wc -l # returns 11! If we return the wc pipe, we can see that the output is "a A b B ... e E f" without the capital F.
