Description:
------------
The PHP glob() manual page doesn't make clear what you can actually do with this function - you have to know to look up the libc glob documentation to find out more information.

The page should either include or link to some details of what syntax / placeholders developers can expect to be able to use - something like the top section of http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/doc/libc/libc_426.html

Is what you are asking to have a better description of some of the potential patterns usable with glob()?
As there is no "level" I'm not entirely sure what you mean.

Correct.

By "detail level" I meant "level of detail" or "amount of detail".

Sorry this took way longer than it should.
Hope the change is okay, if not reopen.

Also, the changes take some time to propagate.
