Keywords: history command, csh Message-ID: <2234@lri.lri.fr> Date: 10 Oct 90 12:59:53 GMT Reply-To: js@sun34.lri.fr Followup-To: comp.unix.questions Organization: LRI, Universite Paris-Sud; Orsay - France Lines: 13 If I set a variable var with a command number, I would like to be able to execute it as !$var. However, the ! command interpretes $ as the last command string rather than what I expected it to do. How to overcome this problem? Thanks in advance, Jose'. -- --- Jose' de Siqueira ( js@lri.lri.fr ) Plus jamais, le temps de toujours...
