Returns the value of
<FONT SIZE=-1>EXPR</FONT> with filename expansions such as the standard
Unix shell <EM>/bin/sh</EM> would do. This is the internal function implementing the <CODE><*.c></CODE>
operator, but you can use it directly. If
<FONT SIZE=-1>EXPR</FONT> is omitted, <CODE>$_</CODE> is used. The <CODE><*.c></CODE> operator is discussed in more detail in
[%linkNodeTitle "perlman:perlop|I/O Operators", $NODE, "I/O Operators",{anchor=>"I_O_Operators"};%].
