UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers

Having trouble doing the following things, I know it has something to do with using metacharacters but I'm not able to get it working correctly.

I need a command to get a long directory listing of all the files that have:

exactly two characters following the letters zot.

all files that have 0 or more characters after the leltters zot


and then I need to use the history command to re-execute the command that listed all the files with an even last digit in the name.

thanks for anyone who can help


RE: yes it is homework, out of 45 questions I'm asking on how to do 1 command, and not asking for the answer I'm asking for any kind of help.....
