If the second argument is omitted, C<GLOB_CSH> (or -C<GLOB_CSH|GLOB_NOCASE> on VMS and DOSish systems) is used by default. +takes one or two arguments. The first is the glob pattern. The +second, if given, is a set of flags ORed together. The available +flags and the default set of flags are listed below under L</POSIX FLAGS>. + +Remember that to use the named constants for flags you must import +them, for example with C<:bsd_glob> described above.

Otherwise the flags to use are +determined solely by the flags argument. The POSIX defined flags are: =over 4Thread Previous | Thread Next
