title: Unix ksh alias parameter for multiple commands?
body: <p>I did a research and found some solutions but none of them worked for me... Maybe could you help me ?
  I've 2 exec : prog1 and prog2. (ksh)
  I would like to run them, at the same time with the alias &quot;e&quot;</p>
  <p>So I did this:</p>
  <blockquote>
  <p>e TEST</p>
  </blockquote>
  <p>It should be translated by</p>
  <blockquote>
  <p>prog1 TEST</p>
  <p>prog2 TEST</p>
  </blockquote>
  <p>I tried :</p>
  <blockquote>
  <p>ALIAS e='prog1 $1; prog2 $1'</p>
  </blockquote>
  <p>OR</p>
  <blockquote>
  <p>e() {</p>
  <p>prog1 $1 | prog2 $1</p>
  <p>}</p>
  </blockquote>
  <p>Without success.</p>
  <p>Do you have any solutions?</p>
