Bash alias help

[mntbighker]

How about a little help with escaping this command in a bash alias file?

#> watch "lsof -n | grep rsync | egrep ' (REG|DIR) ' | egrep -v '( (mem|txt|cwd|rtd) |/LOG)' | awk '{print $9}'"

Someone on the backuppc list reminded me that a function solves this (duh ):

Code: Select all

function watchbupc()
{
watch -n 10 "lsof -n | grep rsync | egrep ' (REG|DIR) ' | egrep -v '( (mem|txt|cwd|rtd) |/LOG)' | aw
k '{print $9}'";
}
