ailiases i bash

[CaKiwi]

How do i create an alias in a bash hell which will include its argument? e.g. in csh if i have an alias

alias ll "ls -l \!* | more"

entering

ll /tmp

is equivalent to

ls -l /tmp | more

Thanks in advance. CaKiwi

Hi CaKiwi,

The is no way tho include argument in the alias like with csh.

The only solution is to define a function intead of an alias :

function ll {
ls -l "$@" | more"
}

Thanks Aigles, I haven't had a chance to try it yet. I will let you know the results when I do. CaKiwi
