[postgis-users] gdal2wktraster.py wildchar not working

[Jorge Arévalo]

I think I have a solution...

You have to specify the wildcard between quotes:

./gdal2wktraster.py -r "test/*.tif" -t newtable -o newtable.sql

instead of

./gdal2wktraster.py -r test/*.tif -t newtable -o newtable.sql

(without quotes) It worked for me on Linux. Is a shell issue, I think...
