Probably a stupid question... how do I use a wildcard in a variable in zsh? If I do:
var=*
echo $var
in bash, it will print all files/directories in the current directory. If I do it in zsh, it will only output an asterisk without the wildcard functionality. Thanks in advance! (1 Reply)
Hi,
I'm using a for loop reading from an input file that contains files, whose path includes a variable name.
But the for loop doesn't expand the variable and therefore can't find the file.
Here's an example:

I have a lot of files with keywords and unique names. I'm using a shell script to refer to a simple pattern file with comma separated values in order to match on certain keywords. The problem is that I don't understand how to handle the wildcard values when I want to skip over the unique names.

envdir
envdir(8) System Manager's Manual envdir(8)NAME
envdir - runs another program with environment modified according to files in a specified directory.
SYNOPSIS
envdir d child
DESCRIPTION
d is a single argument. child consists of one or more arguments.
envdir sets various environment variables as specified by files in the directory named d. It then runs child.
If d contains a file named s whose first line is t, envdir removes an environment variable named s if one exists, and then adds an environ-
ment variable named s with value t. The name s must not contain =. Spaces and tabs at the end of t are removed. Nulls in t are changed to
newlines in the environment variable.
If the file s is completely empty (0 bytes long), envdir removes an environment variable named s if one exists, without adding a new vari-
able.
EXIT CODES
envdir exits 111 if it has trouble reading d, if it runs out of memory for environment variables, or if it cannot run child. Otherwise its
exit code is the same as that of child.
