Ah, bash has recursive globbing, that is good to know. It does not have
glob qualifiers nor temp file process substitution, AFAICS, though.

Glob qualifiers is when you write:

command *(.) for only regular files,

command *.c(mh-1) for only C files modified less than one hour ago,

command .*(@-@) for dotfiles that are broken links.

Temp file process substitution is when you cannot write

vimdiff reference.txt <(command)

because <(…) uses a pipe and vim doesn't like pipes, so you write

vimdiff reference.txt =(command)

to use a temporary file instead.
