The !(ZMAT*|...) syntax requires the bash extglob option.
This must be explicitly enabled in a non-interactive session
(like a script). For example:
#!/bin/bash
shopt -s extglob
/usr/bin/rm -v !(ZMAT*|out*|Out*|GENBAS|Note*)
Fantastic,
Thanks.
How can I leave this mode extglob ?
Well you might wonder why Todd used the "-s" option for shopt.
That is to "enable" or "set" the option to on.
Likely a manpage peek would show an option to turn off extglob.
Hint, it is probably "disable" or "unset".
