Bug report Files "*.txt" - Linux version 3.11.0 - Circlotron - 01-24-2024

Problem is simple - the command Files shows what files reside in the current working folder. No problem. However if you apply a mask to search for one particular type of file then it throws an error message. Files "*.txt" for example doesn't work.

A possibly related problem is Shell "ls" should list the files but it does nothing. In fact, putting an imaginary command after Shell doesn't bring up any kind of error message, it just skips right over it.

Thanks for reporting. Try FILES "./*.txt". Does that work for you?

Yes, that works. Puts the full path to the working folder at the top of the screen then lists
filename     .txt   with a big space in the filename. But it does work.
