This function takes the last command and puts sudo in front of it. Actually used it in a zoom call at work without thinking and it took a second to realize why everyone was laughing. Not my invention--came across it years ago on stackoverflow or someplace and thought it was funny/useful.
Isn't this the same effect as just running 'sudo !!' ?
According to this super user question, someone said that
!!
won’t work in a function, so you must use thefc -ln -1
command in a subshell instead. Note the response that sayseval
shouldn’t be used (not sure why)Yeah but instead of a function you just make it an alias.
Oh good point, I didn’t think about that
