Oh i was kind of going for the opposite. 😈

BTW use caution with your glob there, that only does what you described if the folder has contents, if it doesn’t, rather than getting nothing you’ll get back the parent directory, at least in bash. I’m not one of the cool zsh kids.

    Huh, are you sure or am I just stupid?

    [user@device Documents]$ mkdir test
    [user@device Documents]$ cd test
    [user@device test]$ ls ./*
    ls: cannot access './*': No such file or directory
    

    Same behavior with * instead of ./*.

    I may be the stupid one, i’m sure there’s a related gotcha here under some condition, but objectively not the one i described. Sorry, did not intend to waste anyone’s time and i do appreciate the response back to set me straight.
