[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #47950] glob and dir functions are unable to escape square bracket characters in Windows

[Philip Nienhuis]

Follow-up Comment #31, bug #47950 (project octave):

I found I had that faulty build still installed at work. 

What I get is:

>> dname = 'C:\users\Nienhu01\java'
dname = C:\users\Nienhu01\java
>> __wglob__ (dname)
ans =
{
  [1,1] = C:usersNienhu01java
}


To set the record straight:
It seems javaaddpath invoked directly works all right =>  it is the dir()
command invoked through PKG_ADD (when loading io package) that gives
problems.

I do intend to try Lachlan's patch again.
