Beats me...
When I tested it, I happened to have only one *.sh file in that directory. Now I have two files and I get the same error as you do.
[glob *.sh] as such returns a list with two file names.
When I write these two file names in the exec command verbatim I don't get an error:
Code:
set MYLIST [exec ls -l ppc_timing.sh another.sh]
works fine.
Now even when I do
Code:
set MYLIST [exec ls -l [join[glob *.sh]]]
and the outcome of [join[glob *.sh]] is
exactly ppc_timing.sh another.sh, ls returns an error.
This works:
Code:
set MYLIST [exec ls -l [lindex[glob *.sh] 0]]
but again returns only one file name.
You could use a
foreach loop as workaround. For the moment I have to stop looking as my boss starts looking at me.
