shell - How do I escape characters in a chain of aliases in tcsh? -
i want command cds greps string within output of dirs -v, uses pd + change me directory contains string without removing ring of directories stored within dirs. instance, if output of "dirs -v"
0 foo 1 bar then want command cds bar execute equivalent of pd +1.
i've defined these:
alias dv dirs -v alias pd pushd alias pds "dv | grep \!:1 | awk '{ print "\$1"}'" but getting final alias executes pd +n, n current entry in output dirs -v, hard part. here 1 attempt, output:
% alias nds "\\\`pds \\!:1\\\`" grep: trailing backslash as can see, i'm trying escape backticks backslash, escape backslash (escaped) backslash. apparently doesn't job. need instead?
xargs useful "flatenning" commands containing backtick-nesting.
in case, can used like:
alias nds 'pds \\!:1 | xargs pd'
