Hi
Noticing that a previous ZSH Daily Tip Twitter feed had ceased in 2010 I
have started a new one
https://twitter.com/dailyzshtip
I hope it will help popularize our favorite shell.
It will feature day-to-day practical stuff such as
vi *(.om[$1]) # vim newest file
Any tips, advice or retweeting welcome!

The [$1] should probably be [1] ;)

Valodim,
Whoops yes I carelessly borrowed that from my .zshrc where I have a
function which allows me specify more options
function vew()
{
# name : vew
# description : vi newest file
# or nth newest file if a numeric parameter
# or newest file with $1 string in name
if [ $# -gt 0 ]
then
if [[ "$1" == [0-9] ]]
then
gvim.exe *(.om[$1]) &
else
gvim.exe *$1*(.om[1]) &
fi
else
gvim.exe *~vssver.scc(.om[1]) &
fi
}

Problem here:
% vi *(.om[$1])
zsh: bad math expression: operand expected at `'
%
Please advise. My environment is:
% echo $ZSH_VERSION
4.3.17 # this host is debian 7.2 (debian stable)
% setopt | sort | column
allexport interactive nobgnice
autocd interactivecomments nohup
correctall longlistjobs nonomatch
extendedglob markdirs pathdirs
globdots menucomplete pushdsilent
histignoredups noautolist shinstdin
ignoreeof nobeep
%
Regards,
Eric

I think you want
vi *(.om[1])
or if you wanted to be really different
vi *(.Om[-1])
Otherwise you're substituting a positional parameter, which you don't
want. The error you got comes from it being empty, so there's no
number, which is what it's complaining about, slightly cryptically.
