+=head1 NAME
+
+perlglob.bat - a more capable perlglob.exe replacement
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+    @perlfiles = glob  "..\\pe?l/*.p?";
+    print <..\\pe?l/*.p?>;
+
+    # more efficient version
+    > perl -MFile::DosGlob=glob -e "print <../pe?l/*.p?>"
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+This file is a portable replacement for perlglob.exe.  It
+is largely compatible with perlglob.exe (the Microsoft setargv.obj
+version) in all but one respect--it understands wildcards in
+directory components.
+
+It prints null-separated filenames to standard output.
+
+For details of the globbing features implemented, see
+L<File::DosGlob>.
+
+While one may replace perlglob.exe with this, usage by overriding
+CORE::glob with File::DosGlob::glob should be much more efficient,
+because it avoids launching a separate process, and is therefore
+strongly recommended.  See L<perlsub> for details of overriding
+builtins.
