Subject: globbing on symlink target
To: zsh-users@zsh.org
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8"

Is it possible to glob on a symlink target rather than the symlink
name. For example I have several symlinks that *point to* filenames of
the form ABX.rb but themselves have no pattern to match on. I could
write a loop and use readlink but would prefer to use glob syntax for
interactive use.
