I'm running into a problem getting InfoZip to run non-interactively.

If I go into a QP2TERM session, and type (object names have been changed
to protect the innocent):
zip -j /foobar.zip /foo/bar/*.zip /foo/bar/*.ZIP

I get

All well and good, but if, from a command line, I type:

CALL PGM(QP2SHELL) PARM('/QOpenSys/usr/bin/zip' '/foobar2.zip'
'/foo/bar/*.zip' '/foo/bar/*.ZIP')

I get
zip warning: name not matched: /foo/bar/*.zip
zip warning: name not matched: /foo/bar/*.ZIP

zip error: Nothing to do! (/foobar2.zip)
Press ENTER to end terminal session.

And the same is true if I substitute "QP2TERM" for "QP2SHELL," except
that I get it on a QP2TERM screen with blue function key legends,
instead of a STDOUT screen with red function key legends.

What's going wrong here?
