FWIW, in zsh's manual, "filename expansion" refers to ~user, ~1,
~-1, ~named-directory, =cmd while "filename generation" refers
to globbing.
In dash: Pathname Expansion (File Name Generation)
In mksh: file name generation
In ksh93: File Name Generation
In yash: Pathname expansion (globbing)
In tcsh: Filename substitution
In fish: globbing
