I'm trying to view the contents of a zip archive using an extremely simple regular expression. This works:

But this does not:

What gives? Do I have a misunderstanding of how regular expressions work on the command line, or am I missing something obvious?

Read the man page of unzip. It doesn't talk about regular expressions, just about the two special characters * and ?.

These are often called wildcards or globbing characters (though the latter is more shell-related).
