fuck() { sudo $(fc -ln -1) }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.

According to this super user question, someone said that
!!won’t work in a function, so you must use thefc -ln -1command in a subshell instead. Note the response that saysevalshouldn’t be used (not sure why)Yeah but instead of a function you just make it an alias.

Use suda.vim for automatically dealing with such cases. Works with

vimscriptversion of the same would be:" Disable Suda in diff views if ! &diff let g:suda_smart_edit = 1 endifdeleted by creator
