Run a command with the argument from the last command

Posted

There are a few shortcuts if you want all of the arguments from the previous command, or just the last argument.

  • For all of the arguments: <command> !*
  • For just the last argument: <command> !$

If you want a single argument from a list of arguments from the previous command, you can use <command> !:<argNumber>, You can also use !^ in place of !:1.

Example:

1
2
3
4

ls foo/ bar/ baz/
ls !:2 # Gives the results of ls bar/
ls foo/ bar/ baz/
ls !:1 # Gives the results of ls foo/
