linux - Why does glob lstat matching entries? -


looking behavior in this question, surprised see perl lstat()s every path matching glob pattern:

$ mkdir dir $ touch dir/{foo,bar,baz}.txt   $ strace -e trace=lstat perl -e 'say $^v; <dir/b*>'  v5.10.1 lstat("dir/baz.txt", {st_mode=s_ifreg|0664, st_size=0, ...}) = 0 lstat("dir/bar.txt", {st_mode=s_ifreg|0664, st_size=0, ...}) = 0

i see same behavior on linux system glob(pattern) , <pattern>, , later versions of perl.

my expectation globbing opendir/readdir under hood, , not need inspect actual pathnames searching.

what purpose of lstat? affect glob()s return?

this strange behavior has been noticed before on perlmonks. turns out glob calls lstat support glob_mark flag, has effect that:

each pathname directory matches pattern has slash appended.

to find out whether directory entry refers subdir, need stat it. apparently done when flag not given.

linux - xterm copying to CLIPBOARD using copy-selection causes automatic updating of CLIPBOARD upon mouse selection -

i've tried various ways coerce xterm (versions 285 , 292) copy selection clipboard clipboard whenever press ctrl-shift-c. promising way far has been, in ~/.xresources, put this: xterm*vt100.translations: #override \ ctrl shift <keypress> c: copy-selection(clipboard) \n\ ctrl shift <keypress> v: insert-selection(clipboard) ctrl-shift-v works perfectly, copying has nuance... if restart xterm, highlighting text puts things in primary clipboard; expected, proper, default behavior. if hit ctrl-shift-c, copies current selection clipboard clipboard. the bug, however, if highlight text after first time pressed ctrl-shift-c, you'll see highlighting copies both primary and clipboard. cannot figure out how stop xterm updating clipboard upon selection... , doesn't make sense me in first place. i said, @ specific point in time, copy selection clipboard... yet starts updating automatically upon selection after doing once... anyone have workaround...
