Only the first example worked for me, but I found $1 could be a pattern, and i could set a second
parameter w/o problem

setopt local_options extended_glob null_glob
filelst=( *$1*~*.(aux|toc|dvi|aux|exe|obj|zip|pdf|mdb|xls|bak|swp|log|jpg|gif|tiff|jpeg|bmp) )

if (( ${#filelst} ))
then
echo "file list : " $filelst
gvim.exe ${filelst[*]} &
else
echo "Sorry no file matched *$1*"
fi
