I'm trying to set an alias for sudo !! in Bash. I tried alias sbb='sudo !!', but it interprets that as a literal !! and prints sudo: !!: command not found If I use double quotes, it substitutes the double bang in the string itself, so that doesn't work. Is there any way to make this work? Or an alternative alias? `
