What is a fish shell equivalent of mkdir -p foo/bar/baz/quux && cd $_?
I know about $history[1], but here I need only last argument of the previous command.
fish doesn't support a last argument variable unfortunately.
An efficient interactive way to do this is to make the directory:
> mkdir -p foo/bar/baz/quux
Then type cd and the first character of the path.
> cd f
At this point fish will probably autosuggest the whole path. If not you can press alt-up to do a history token search and it will certainly find it.
A scripting way to do it would be:
set path foo/bar/baz/quux && mkdir -p $path && cd $path
