Subject: Looking for a file somewhere in a directory recursively

Assume I have a file pattern
  temp*.bat

Assume I have a directory d:\XXX

and that I want to find all instances using Windows' file matching mechanisms rather than than Ruby regular expressions or the functionality of fnmatch.

In other words ... it _has_ to be the Windows file matching method exactly.


I see that FileUtils has a bunch of functionality but what I want is something like

  X_FileUtils.dir("MyDir").pattern("*.bat") { |file| puts file }


Is there a gem "out there" to do what I want?
