>...The only way that TSM accepts wildcards is by using double quotes...

You're confusing TSM and Unix shell actions.  As long as TSM gets the
wildcard characters, it can expand them.  Whether the wildcard
characters that you type actually get to TSM is a function of what
command shell you are running in a given context and what options
may govern its handling of operands.  Shells usually pass wildcard
characters without interpretation when they are enclosed in single
or double quotes; if no quotes, they try to expand the wildcard
characters themselves.
