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'
