need couple of ksh tricks please

1) I ran myScript with 2 arguments, I meant to use 3
if I do r my, it will rerun it with the 2 arguments. is there a way I can do r my and add a third argument at the end?

2) say I did

Code:
myAcript.ksh 2 5 7 8

I realise my typo. is there an easy way to redo the command replacing A with S?

thanks
