Hi,
In rc
*hola*
matches any file that contains the word 'hola'. Is there any way to
match all the files that don't contain 'hola' in its name? with awk
and grep it's easy, but I can't figure out with rc.

match=()
for(i in *)
! ~ $i *hola && match = ($match $i)

I hadn't thought of erik's answer. I usually end up doing something
like "cat `{ls | grep -v hola}" or the like. I find that easier to read,
unless you're really restricted to literally using just rc for some reason.

I am not restricted to rc only. I was doing something similar to you,
but then it occurred to me that perhaps there was an easy way to do it
with rc; apparently there isn't ☺
