[New-bugs-announce] [issue17513] astrike(*) in argv

[Amin]

New submission from Amin:

suppose the the following simple program argvtest.py:

import sys
print sys.argv[1]

in my Python 2.6.6. if I run it with the following parameters:
$ python argvtest.py tc*
it returns:
tc2 (or the first result of ls tc*) 
but it should return 
tc*
