i have 255 files in a directory named 000po.k thru 255po.k
and I want to copy all files except 3: exclude 000po.k, 166po.k,168po.k

I know the long way around it copying these files, but am looking for a shorter way of doing this:

my old approach:

# copy 001po.k thru 009po.k to target directory
cp $SRC/0[0-9][1-9]po.k $TGT

# copy 100po.k thru 159po.k
cp $SRC/1[0-5][0-9]po.k $TGT

... etc etc etc ...

my new approach is to exclude the files I don't want to copy, but
this isn't working for me.

cp $SRC/!(000po.k|166po.k|168po.k) $TGT

syntax error near unexpected token `('


TIA for your help.
