NAME
       glob.h, glob - pathname pattern-matching types

SYNOPSIS
       #include <glob.h>

DESCRIPTION
       The  <glob.h> header defines the structures and symbolic constants used
       by the glob(3C).

       The structure type glob_t contains the following members:

       size_t gl_pathc	     /* count of paths matched by pattern */
       char   **gl_pathv     /* pointer to a list of matched pathnames */
       size_t gl_offs	     /* lots to reserve at the beginning of gl_pathv */

       The following constants are provided as values for the flags argument:

       GLOB_APPEND     Append  generated   pathnames   to   those   previously
		       obtained.

       GLOB_DOOFFS     Specify	how many null pointers to add to the beginning
		       of gl_pathv.

       GLOB_ERR	       Cause glob() to return on error.

       GLOB_MARK       Each pathname that is a directory that matches  pattern
		       has a slash appended.

       GLOB_NOCHECK    If  pattern does not match any  pathname, then return a
		       list consisting of only pattern.

       GLOB_NOESCAPE   Disable backslash escaping.

       GLOB_NOSORT     Do not sort the pathnames returned.

       The following constants are defined as error return values:

       GLOB_ABORTED    The scan	 was  stopped  because	GLOB_ERR  was  set  or
		       (*errfunc)() returned non-zero.

       GLOB_NOMATCH    The  pattern  does not match any existing pathname, and
		       GLOB_NOCHECK was not set in flags.

       GLOB_NOSPACE    An attempt to allocate memory failed.

       GLOB_NOSYS      Reserved.
