I've read the man page on bash several times now, but I can't find out how to get the following to work:
- In a tcsh I can do $var:r, which gives me 'name' if $var contaned 'name.ext'. How can I do this with bash? - In tcsh I can type anything on the command line and do a search on the history list matching this input by pressing ALT-P. How do I do that with bash? Alex.
