Subject: Can I put a newline in an alias?
Date: Sat, 19 Jul 1997 21:51:33 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <19970719215133.24332@panix.com> (raw)

This is a pretty basic question, but i tried using \n and ^M to put a
newline, or carraige return, into an alias, and neither worked.

How is this done? Or is it? Also how can i put a 'control-whatever'
sequence into an alias? I'm using zsh 3.0.1.
