Hi all,
print -l *(e:true:)
works but
x=(*); print -l ${(e:true:)x}
is an error. I haven't found an alternative in the doc so i wonder again
(http://www.zsh.org/mla/users//2006/msg00193.html) if there is a kinda
perl grep :-)
regards

In general there's no correlation between glob qualifiers and parameter
expansion flags, so you shouldn't expect that. E.g. ${(U)x} means to
convert $x to uppercase, but *(U) means to match files owned by the
current effective user ID.
One could argue that given (N) to turn on NULL_GLOB and (D) to turn
on GLOB_DOTS, there should also be a way to turn on NO_NOMATCH so that
one could force an (e::) qualifier to be applied to nonexistent files.
However, NO_NOMATCH normally means that the entire pattern _including_
qualifiers must be preserved unchanged on a match failure, so turning
it off within the qualifiers is a logical quandary. Note also that
even with NO_NOMATCH, *(e:false:) fails with "no such file."

If you mean
grep { func } @x
as in
map { if (func) { $_ } else { () } } @x
then no, there is no direct zsh equivalent, except in the special case
where func is the zsh equivalent of m/pattern/.
With extendedglob set, zsh does have ${x/(#b)(*)/$(func $match)},
which can be made to behave mostly like perl map. If func is limited
to things that can be expressed as parameter expansion operations, you
can change $(...) to ${...}, save a fork, and annoy Matthias Kopferman.

In general .. but this correlation can be very usefull so i've tried
something that smells logical for me :-)

Thanks for enligthenment, Bart.
