Is this a bug - print <c:\program files\*.*>;

I'm not sure if this is a bug.

I'm running Perl 5.8 on a Windows 2000 Pro system (with SP4 and all latest
hotfixes installed).

Running perl -v  I get:
This is perl, v5.8.0 built for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The problem is I do not get correct result from the following code:
print <c:\program files\*.*>;
or
print <c:\\program files\\*.*>;

I get only one line of output text:
c:./program

I'm a beginner on Perl, though I've written several scripts manipulating Web
sites and managing downloads. I wonder if it is a bug on Windows system or
I'm doing something wrong.

Thanks.

Edward
