GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 218010
Save as does not expand globs
Last modified: 2004-05-28 11:29:08 UTC
Using the "Save as" dialog, specifying a glob expression (eg. "file*") should populate the listboxes with the result of the expression, not use the text literally as a filename.
this is still not working with evo1.5.7 and gtk2-2.2.4-100.SuSE.ulb.3 (which includes a backport of gtk2-2.4's advanced file selection dialog). as discussed on irc with gerardo and dobey, this isn't an evolution bug, but should be a gtk2 bug, since this depends on the file dialog - notximian and likely notabug.
