Subject: disable globbing for a program?


I have a program that takes some parameters which sometimes include "*".  Works 
fine with DOS, but GO32 looks at these and performs globbing, thereby messing 
things up.
I know that I can force the user to disable globbing by either using quotes or 
by SET GO32=NOGLOB, but neither are very palatable.
So----is there any way I can build the program so that GO32 won't do the 
globbing?  (I use coff2exe to bind go32 with the program, and distribute the exe 
file.)  I'm thinking of something like " int __glob_enable = 0;" in the program, 
similar to the way borland-C lets you change stacksize.
Thanks,
