Hi Leo/Luiz.
May I ask for the inclusion of glob() to lposix:
static int Pglob(lua_State *L) /** glob(pattern) */
{
const char *pattern = luaL_optstring(L, 1, "*");
glob_t globres;
if (glob(pattern, 0, NULL, &globres))
return pusherror(L, pattern);
else
{
int i;
lua_newtable(L);
for (i=1; i<=globres.gl_pathc; i++) {
lua_pushstring(L, globres.gl_pathv[i-1]);
lua_rawseti(L, -2, i);
}
globfree(&globres);
return 1;
}
}
Cheers,
George
