Hi,
That is b'cos `ls <dirname>` would list the contents of the directory, not
the directory entry in the current directory and when U type `ls *` at the
prompt, it is changed to `ls <file1> <file2> <dir1> etc etc...` and
therefore the directory entries will appear.
Bye ... Narain.

hi list
one more thing , ls * in the current directory is listing the contents
of my directory recursively on my machine. how is that ?( using bash )
something like echo */* . for i would expect ls * to list only the files
in current directories + the directory names ..
