Subject: Rationalized? aliases
Date: Wed, 08 Nov 1995 15:57:37 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <9511082057.AA08200@spacely.afive> (raw)
With beta10 and previous releases, the following worked:
% echo $ZSH_VERSION
2.6-beta10
% alias e="gnuclient -q"
% [[ $HOST != $HOMESYSTEM ]] && alias e="$(whence e) -h $HOMESYSTEM"
% type e
e is an alias for gnuclient -q -h spacely
Now however, the rationalized alias output makes this not work:
% echo $ZSH_VERSION
2.6-beta11
alias e="gnuclient -q"
% [[ $HOST != $HOMESYSTEM ]] && alias e="$(whence e) -h $HOMESYSTEM"
% type e
e is an alias for \''gnuclient -q'\'' -h spacely'
This is not what I desire ('gnuclient -q' is not a valid command) - what
I want is to append "-h spacely" to the alias. How can I do this?
Thanks in advance,
Vin
