On: How Command Line Parameters Are Parsed (2016)

Yeah pretty much just that:

    rm @{g *.bak}

`g` returns a JSON array of file names and the @{} tells the shell to expand the array into parameters.

This way you don't need to worry about spaces in file names or other problems with escaping.

[billpg → laumars]

What if I wanted to delete the two files "@{g" and "*.bak}"?

[laumars → billpg]

You'd just put them in quotes as you already had done. In that regard the shell is designed to behave very similarly to Bash.
