in thread Windows backslash problem

Hi Mr. Muskrat, I just tried your suggestion:
use File::Copy;
copy("a/b/*.txt","a/");

[download]
unfortunately it doesn't seem to work for me. It works fine for an individual file, say:
use File::Copy;
copy("a/b/ccc.txt","a/");

[download]
not a problem, but when the * is put in it doesn't seem to do its job. Any ideas?
