           Summary: File globbing not supported on Windows
           Product: Wireshark
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Low
         Component: Extras
        AssignedTo: wireshark-bugs@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
        ReportedBy: gerald@xxxxxxxxxxxxx


Build Information:
Paste the COMPLETE build information from "Help->About Wireshark", "wireshark
-v", or "tshark -v".

Running "mergecap -w out.pcap *.pcap" on Windows fails with

mergecap: Can't open *.pcap: No such file or directory

We assume that the shell will expand wildcards for us, which doesn't happen on
Windows. This applies to capinfos as well.

We might be able to solve this by adding a convenience function to getopt.c or
file_util.c which calls FindFirstFile/FindNextFile on Windows.
