:I want to create an archive for the files that are matched by the contents of
:index.txt
:I tried in dir/ to run the command:
:zip backup.zip $(<index.txt)

zip backup.zip $(eval echo $(<index.txt))

:but that didn't worked because the file* another* weren't expanded. How do
:I tell him(zsh 3.1.5) to expand the result of $(<index.txt)?
