Note: This site is currently "Under construction". I'm migrating to a new version of my site building software.

Run A Command With The Arguments Of The Previous Command

Code

!*

You can use it to run a command with the same arguments. For example, if you mess up a command:

Code

mdir ~/path/to/some/dir/to/make

mkdir !*
