-$ sidinfo -R /misc/C64Music/*.sid
+$ sidinfo -R "/misc/C64Music/*.sid"
 
 The above will start from /misc/C64Music/ and scan any accessible
 subdirectories for files that match "*.sid" pattern and handle them.
 
 Using previous example about SQL inserts:
 
-$ sidinfo /misc/C64Music/*.sid -R -e\' -F "INSERT INTO sometable (filename,name,author) VALUES ('@filename@', '@name@', '@author@', '@copyright@')\n"

 You can change the field separator by specifying the "-l" option and
 also optionally omit the STIL field names by using the "-n" option.
