Yawn. Not definitive. Nothing that reading bash(1) wouldn't tell you. And bash(1) at least covers the useful !^ and !$ which this doesn't.


It doesn't?

It does!

I couldn't include an example of each word designator combination in the article. That's why I added a cheat sheet listing all of them.


No, it doesn't. The cheatsheet doesn't allow !^ and !$ to be constructed. The closest would be !!:^ and !!:$.


Nice guide. Will save me a lot of typing.


excellent reference. Thanks.
