How to create a alias with an argument
If I want to create an alias called "cdr", and this alias need an argument (for example arg1)followed by "cdr", the result should go to the directory like "/home/ting/arg1/report/logs", the command should look like below,
alias cdr arg1 "cd /home/ting/\!$1/report/logs" (not working):  Anybody can tell me how to create this alias? Thanks in advance!

I assume you're using (t)csh? IN this case the following should work for you:
Code:
alias cdr 'cd /home/ting/\!*/report/logs'
