win32 recursive glob broken

[John Calcote]

When you enter a recursive grep command such as:

 

  grep -r searchstring *.c

 

You will get an invalid parameter error if there are no files matching *.c in the current directory (there may be files below the current directory).

 

To work around this, I've placed dummy text files called dummy.c in my search roots. Then everything works fine.

 

Thanks,
