Dear Phil,

In message [ref] you wrote:

Yes.  Braces are expanded as given.  Square brackets are expanded in the
order found in the filesystem, not the order given.

"in the order found in the filesystem" is not correct.  Pathname
expansion using [ ... ] patterns generates a _sorted_ list. 

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
