going by the documentation, this sounds correct to me:
If set, the pattern ** used in a filename expansion context will match a files 
and zero or more directories and subdirectories.  If the pattern is followed 
by a /, only directories and subdirectories match.

what's wrong with using `ls **.cs` ?
