Hi,
Suppose I've typed these commands:

# mv somefile1 /home/saket/stuff/books/
# acroread somefile.pdf
# mv somefile2 /home/saket/stuff/books/
How can I substitute the '/home/saket/stuff/books/' of the firstcommand into the last command ?
Currently I just retype it again :(
I would push M-. twice. Assuming you have emacs bindings set as in"bindkey -e"

Can '!:n' or something similar be used ? Or is '!:n' used only if youwant arguments from the _last_ command.
