replacement for the nullglob bashism



Hi.

I'm looking for a substitute for (unposixly) doing "shopt -s nullglob"
before a loop over an expansion.

Is there a good substitution?

The shortest I came up with was doing

[ "$(echo *.foo)" = "*.foo" ] || for X in *.foo ; do foo "${X}"; done

Kind regards and thanks in advance

T.
