Hi,
In man page of zshexpn, for "^x" negative pattern, it said:
This has a higher precedence than `/'
But I think the precedence should be lower than /, right? Just as the
zshguide said:
In filename generation, the ^ has a lower precedence than a slash:
in page 228.

The zshguide is wrong there. It also says that “~ is the only globbing
operator to have a lower precedence than /”

But if "^" has a higher precedence than "/", then
"^foo/bar"
will match any files in "." other than "foo/bar"?
