Subject: "Literal" command execution
Date: Mon, 23 Jan 2012 20:51:50 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120123205150.27077e4eea9d7be1e632508f@users.sf.net> (raw)
Hi everyone.
I'm trying to reduce some typing here, as usual ;).
I have a command line logger that allows free text as its main arguments (random example: taskwarrior). A typical example might be:
command log [free text follows]
I want to reduce escaping to the bare minimum. Dollars are not really a problem, but I discovered myself to escape '<' '>' and '!' too often.
Of course I am already aware of both noglob and nocorrect, but I would need something more extreme, as in "feed whatever text, including #, etc, that follows the command as arguments".
Is there any way to achieve that?
Maybe by some rewriting trick?
