The answer to this is probably so easy ... I want to be in a terminal and type ed filename and have the editor open and start editing filename in the background.
Easy, put an alias in /etc/profile alias ed="gedit $1 & " alias ed="gedit $%1 & " alias ed="gedit %$1 & " alias ed="gedit %1 & " Would some kind hearted soul please take pity on me and tell me the correct syntax (or where to find it - I have looked in the manuals, just not the right one?)? -- Thanks, Mike. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
