Subject: Why are Quotes necessay here?
Date: Fri, 30 Jul 2004 12:56:51 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <rjdkg054enl8qmh6ij2krgc3mt6u3jqipn@4ax.com> (raw)

Hi,

Not necessarily just zsh, and may be I'm being thick today, but why are the double quotes around
the $1* necessary here?

Was the star otherwise being expanded?

elif builtin cd "$1*" &> /dev/null ;

without quotes I get

 no matches found: raynin*

I have 
setopt localoptions nonomatch
