Re: Problems with all in .newsrc
One of us misunderstands the way * globbing in unix works....I don't
think it's me. You want net.rec.all to expand to net.rec.ski and
net.rec.baseball.scores, and so on -- well, the last time I tried
it, /usr/cak/* did not expand to /usr/cak/Mail/mbox and beyond;
* (like all) only works one level at a time. I have to say something
like /usr/cak/*/*/* and that explicitly gets me things three layers
down, and not the stuff in between.
