I think the problem is that the file list produced by the ls in the back ticks is showing up as a list all on one line rather than a list of files one per line. Not absolutely sure about that, but if you do an echo `ls -1d ./someregexp` it produces one line of output. It might work to actually write a script to make sure the output has newlines between the file names and then run that in the hobbit config instead of the ls. <div>
