=================
within the script, run the commands "zmodload", "setopt" and "autoload -U
zargs", and see if you get output that makes sense in a zsh environment.
if not, the commands within your script are not being executed by zsh.
also, on your command line, check the path to zsh:
ls -lh =zsh
it might be in /usr/local/bin/zsh, which might cause the script to default
to a bourne shell, and the zsh glob tricks will fail.
if the commands are preceded by sudo, try:
sudo zsh -c ls -l save/*(.)
or, try setting "SHELL=zsh" towards the top of the script, before invoking
sudo.

"They tell us that we live in a great free republic;
that our institutions are democratic; that we are
a free and self-governing people. That is too much,
even for a joke. Wars throughout history have been
waged for conquest and plunder. And that is war in
a nutshell. The master class has always declared
the wars; the subject class has always fought the
battles."
