Hi Dave, 

This was a really excellent show! Just the kind of stuff that I wish I had known for about the last 10 years. I tried something after listening to this that worked wonderfully as long I was long as I was just doing a list command, but when I tried the same thing using secure copy to get the same list of arguments, it didn't work. 

What I wanted to do was to push all MP3 and OGG files in a given directory over to my server in a single command, excluding the HTML and markdown files in the same directory. 

The following command worked perfectly to **list** all of the MP3s and OGGs: "ls *(*.mp3|*.ogg)", but when I tried the same arguments with SCP it failed. Have you tried doing these kinds of expansions with secure copy?
