Quite right on the .glob and .getwd. I guess the tests don't test hit

That would certainly make me happy!  Although, Joel's above examples
nicely show how the operators differ in useful ways I think it is ripe
for misunderstanding and bugs.  But, if you change the name to what
you suggest it becomes much more clear.  Thanks for the suggestion, I
can now map "and" to "and_then" in my fantasy Ruby :-)

Cheers,
