i know things like "cat *lst|wc", but i don't want to type them.
when i try to use wildcards with "<" or ">" in /bin/sh, it fails:
my input (only one file with this name exists in the current dir):
wc <*lst
/bin/sh's output:
cannot open *lst: No such file or directory
is there a way to configure /bin/sh for "more/better" expansion?
btw, with csh it works fine ;-)
