Well this isn't an ActiveState issue and it isn't really a Python issue
(though I can see why you would think that). It's simply Windows versus
Unix. On Unix the *shell* does globbing. The program never sees the
unexpanded filename. On Windows, the application must do globbing (if it
wants to). Python (Active- or otherwise!) has a glob module that can do
it for you.
