Hi Chris,

I could pretend the splitting was done on purpose to better highligh the 
file hiearchy, but ... the truth is I believe I had some issues with one 
of the components involve in our documentation building 
(doxygen/breathe/sphinx, or perhaps just C++ that would confuse "*/" 
with an end-of-C-comment marker) to make it happy with "**/*.tif", so I 
ended up falling back to this trick of splitting the string, which is 
exactly equivalent to merging them together.  I guess there must be some 
way of fixing this, but couldn't find it at the time this was written
