 # mark (development version)
 
+* `glob()` added for basic wildcard globbing on character vectors [#167](https://github.com/jmbarbone/mark/issues/167)
 * adds greater use of `{fs}` over base file functions [#160](https://github.com/jmbarbone/mark/issues/160)
 * improvements in `todos()` and `fixmes()`
   * File extension can now be set [#170](https://github.com/jmbarbone/mark/issues/170), which by default includes `qmd` ([#163](https://github.com/jmbarbone/mark/issues/163)) and `py` files
