 Replying to [ticket:1022 coke]:
 > PGE::Glob should have POD docs explaining the specific matching language
 that is used. See Tcl::Glob for an example.

 Coke, I found very few differences between the PODs of these two files.
 The Tcl::Glob file has this section:
 {{{
     The following special characters are supported

     "?" Matches any single character

     "*" Matches any number of any characters, including no characters.

     "[chars]"
         Matches any character in the given set. Sets are either a sequence
         of explicit characters, or a range specified with a dash, e.g.
         [aeiou] matches lower case ASCII vowels, while [a-z] matches any
         lowercase ASCII letter.

     "\x"
         Match a literal character, e.g. \* matches the literal "*",
 avoiding
         its special meaning.
 }}}
 ... which has no counterpart in the PGE::Glob file.  But otherwise,
 PGE::Glob looks well documented.

 Can you explain a bit more about what you think is missing?

 Thank you very much.
