      @climagic Using zsh's advanced globbing I can do that from a ls command instead and get more useful information than just file names.

        @toksyuryel I believe zsh globbing only selects file names based on a pattern, not the contents of the files?

          @ericsfraga I appear to have misread what the command I was replying to was meant to do. However, now that I actually try the command I was replying to, it doesn't actually work at all.

            @toksyuryel @ericsfraga Never mind, it only doesn't work because I set grep to noglob by default. #
