*the shell* expands your unquoted wildcards before passing the args to your program.
> Example: If a directory has two files m1.txt and m2.txt, and my ocaml program (here called myprog) is invoked with wildcards it would behave something like this:

You will have :
./myprog m* -> Sys.argv.(1) = "m1.txt" and Sys.argv.(2) = "m2.txt"
./myprog m?.txt -> Sys.argv.(1) = "m1.txt" and Sys.argv.(2) = "m2.txt"
./myprog "m*" -> Sys.argv.(1) = "m*" since the * is inside quotes
