minus-squareziggurat@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·3 days agoCan you tell me how to run a command and ignore an alias in NuShell? I don’t really use nu but when i tried to write something in it, this was something that eluded me
minus-squareSubArcticTundra@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·3 days agoOh, if you want to avoid running a built in command like ls or cp and want to run the actual thing in /usr/bin, you prefix it with a ^, so eg ^cp -p.
minus-squareziggurat@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·edit-23 days agoInteresting. What does the ^ do in this situation? And I just want to not respect an alias, so falls back to either builtin or path. In zsh or bash I can prefix the command with the word command, or a backslash (directly before the command)
