(directory #P"foo/*" :directories nil) [(directory #P"foo:*" :directories nil) in MCL]

MCL: Returns all files under the foo directory, regardless of whether they have a type or not.

CCL: Returns only files that have no type under foo directory.

Test: (= (length (directory #P"ccl:*.*")) (length (directory #P"ccl:*"))) Should return T if this bug is fixed.

Technically, this is probably not an ANSI compliance issue since ANSI is vague on what #'directory is supposed to do. But current behavior is different from MCL, which is presumably where many CCL users come from. It would be interesting to see what ACL does here.

Fix is simple:

One example is ​http://clozure.com/pipermail/openmcl-devel/2009-December/010792.html

The following two links suggest how this can be corrected.

The ccl-documentation.html does not mention *command-line-argument-list*. I believe it should. :)

If you supply me with a specification of CCL command line argument handling, I offer writing the missing documentation myself.
