i have the following alias set in my .bashrc:
alias la='ls -laG'
but i would really like to issue a command thusly:
la foo/bar
i guess i have to write a shell script? or is there some xargs way?

This works for me. It will replace
lawithls -laG, such that your command will be executed asls -laG foo/bar.
