<h4 class="subsection">33.1.2 Word Designators</h4>
|
|
|
|
<p>Word designators are used to select desired words from the event.
|
|
A ‘<samp>:</samp>’ separates the event specification from the word designator. It
|
|
may be omitted if the word designator begins with a ‘<samp>^</samp>’, ‘<samp>$</samp>’,
|
|
‘<samp>*</samp>’, ‘<samp>-</samp>’, or ‘<samp>%</samp>’. Words are numbered from the beginning
|
|
of the line, with the first word being denoted by 0 (zero). Words are
|
|
inserted into the current line separated by single spaces.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>For example,
|
|
</p>
|
|
<dl compact="compact">
|
|
<dt><code>!!</code></dt>
|
|
<dd><p>designates the preceding command. When you type this, the preceding
|
|
command is repeated in toto.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</dd>
|
|
<dt><code>!!:$</code></dt>
|
|
<dd><p>designates the last argument of the preceding command. This may be
|
|
shortened to <code>!$</code>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</dd>
|
|
<dt><code>!fi:2</code></dt>
|
|
<dd><p>designates the second argument of the most recent command starting with
|
|
the letters <code>fi</code>.
|
|
</p></dd>
|
|
</dl>
|
|
|
|
<p>Here are the word designators:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<dl compact="compact">
|
|
<dt><code>0 (zero)</code></dt>
|
|
<dd><p>The <code>0</code>th word. For many applications, this is the command word.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</dd>
|
|
<dt><code><var>n</var></code></dt>
|
|
<dd><p>The <var>n</var>th word.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</dd>
|
|
<dt><code>^</code></dt>
|
|
<dd><p>The first argument; that is, word 1.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</dd>
|
|
<dt><code>$</code></dt>
|
|
<dd><p>The last argument.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</dd>
|
|
<dt><code>%</code></dt>
|
|
<dd><p>The word matched by the most recent ‘<samp>?<var>string</var>?</samp>’ search.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</dd>
|
|
<dt><code><var>x</var>-<var>y</var></code></dt>
|
|
<dd><p>A range of words; ‘<samp>-<var>y</var></samp>’ abbreviates ‘<samp>0-<var>y</var></samp>’.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</dd>
|
|
<dt><code>*</code></dt>
|
|
<dd><p>All of the words, except the <code>0</code>th. This is a synonym for ‘<samp>1-$</samp>’.
|
|
It is not an error to use ‘<samp>*</samp>’ if there is just one word in the event;
|
|
the empty string is returned in that case.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</dd>
|
|
<dt><code><var>x</var>*</code></dt>
|
|
<dd><p>Abbreviates ‘<samp><var>x</var>-$</samp>’
|
|
</p>
|
|
</dd>
|
|
<dt><code><var>x</var>-</code></dt>
|
|
<dd><p>Abbreviates ‘<samp><var>x</var>-$</samp>’ like ‘<samp><var>x</var>*</samp>’, but omits the last word.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</dd>
|
|
</dl>
|
|
|
|
<p>If a word designator is supplied without an event specification, the
|
|
previous command is used as the event.
