i have a problem, i'm trying to get a function to work with RAR, an
archiver for Linux.
i'm typing in the following and all i get is the command listing for
commands and switches:
----------------------------------------------------------------
function rar { /dir/path/rar/rar ; }
or
rar () { /dir/path/rar/rar ; }
---------------------------------------------------------------
neither one really works,
No surprise. You need to pass the args:
function rar()
{
/dir/path/rar/rar $@
}
Better tho to put rar in $PATH. If you don't want to do that, this works
too:
alias rar='/dir/path/rar/rar'
