Subject: globbing on symlink target
Date: Wed, 28 Feb 2018 10:42:15 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAF6rxgm_c+xMds+rzrBtd7LFbU_-4wOSpr8gbz1-Hu-yY9dNCA@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Is it possible to glob on a symlink target rather than the symlink
name. For example I have several symlinks that *point to* filenames of
the form ABX.rb but themselves have no pattern to match on. I could
write a loop and use readlink but would prefer to use glob syntax for
interactive use.
