Parece que tudo o que você tentou é escapar do caractere especial *
, fazendo com que ele seja interpretado literalmente em vez de um curinga.
Tente usar isso:
uncompress *.Z
"*.Z"
Aspas duplas preservarão o valor literal do *
Enclosing characters in double quotes (‘"’) preserves the literal value of all characters within the quotes, with the exception of ‘$’, ‘'’, ‘\’, and, when history expansion is enabled, ‘!’.
'*.Z'
As aspas simples preservarão o valor literal de tudo
Enclosing characters in single quotes (‘'’) preserves the literal value of each character within the quotes. A single quote may not occur between single quotes, even when preceded by a backslash.
\*.Z
Um escape (barra invertida) também preservará o valor literal de *
A non-quoted backslash ‘\’ is the Bash escape character. It preserves the literal value of the next character that follows, with the exception of newline.
