Well, I don't. Apparently there are unsuspected features even in
simple GNU commands. How exactly does "*" expand in your pwd? I got:
tom:(~/tmp): echo *
deb_all germans
tom:(~/tmp): cat * > all_in_one
tom:(~/tmp): echo *
all_in_one deb_all germans
Regarding your other post: yes, we should put valid example questions
online when the time is there. It will avoid lots of unnecessary
discussions and loss of confidence.
