approximate filename globbing



I have trouble understanding the "Approximate Matching" section
in the zsh manual.

Assume I have in my directory files cn1.pl, cn2.pl, cn3.pl, and
I use the following glob pattern:

  ls (#a2)cnx.pl

I had expected to see all my cn?.pl displayed, but instead I 
get a "zsh: no match" error.

How do I correctly use (#a...) for globbing?
