Inserting Parameters in an Alias
You can insert one or more parameters in an <alias_value> when creating an alias.
You can insert a parameter in an <alias_value> in one of two ways:
•
Parameter concatenation: You can insert a dollar sign ($) in the last character
position of the <alias_value>. Then, when a user enters the alias name and
follows it with the value of the parameter, the system executes the alias with
the value the user entered.
•
Parameter reference: You can embed one or more parameters anywhere
inside the <alias_value>. For each parameter you embed when creating the
alias, you insert a percent sign (%) and a parameter number. The parameter
%1 in an <alias_value> takes the value of the first parameter the user enters at
the command line after the alias name; the parameter %2 in an <alias_value>
takes the value of the second parameter the user enters, and so on.
Note: You cannot combine the two methods of inserting parameters within an
alias.
