[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #62282] ls command in 7.1.0 may not function

[Liang Tang]

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #62282 (project octave):

I typically use wild card like ls *xxx* to find files with name contains xxx. 
That is the reason that * is used with ls.  

Because ls used to work with * and I could not see anything in the release
note, that I understand, could have caused this change, I put the report in. 


I know that dir *xxx* still work the same or similarly.  (see below) 

dir C:\Octave\Octave-7.1.0\octave*
octave-firsttime.vbs         octave-launch.exe
octave-launch-firsttime.exe  octave.vbs 


I tried Rik's suggestion: 

>> ls 'C:\Octave\Octave-7.1.0\octave*'
ls: cannot access 'C:\Octave\Octave-7.1.0\octave*': No such file or directory

Is there any Octave option that I can change to bring the old ls feature back?
 Thanks.
