Shell Programming and Scripting

Having been a long-time csh person I now need to convert a lot of stuff to run under ksh. Can anyone tell me how to do a ksh equivalent of the csh history substitution !* that can be used in an alias, ie how would I do:

alias cd "cd \!*; pwd"
alias find "find . -name \!* -print"

Thanks,

Jonny.

alias ll="ls -l"

Korn has built in PWD.
Here is some common stuff I put in my korn profile. PWD works nice and so does indivdual root history.


#alias settings
alias ll="ls -l"
alias rm="rm -i"
#Set command line like vi
set -o vi
LOGNAME=$(logname)
#Set prompt
export PS1=[root@$(hostname)]'$PWD>'
#Set history file for each user
HISTFILE=".`logname`_history"
export HISTFILE
DATE=$(date)
echo "Login at $DATE" >> $HISTFILE
#Set roots path for security
PATH="/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/bin"
#Set backspace
stty erase ^H

Thanks - my general set up is OK, getting an equivalent way of placing arguments within an alias string is giving me a problem. I think I will need to convert these type of aliases to functions.
