when I type "echo */" on csh or sh, it just lists all of the directories
in the current directory.

when I type "echo */" on bash, it lists every file in the directory with a
"/" after the name.

I think that this is the wrong behaviro.

I'm using the bash that is installed on geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu.
