how can I invoke the last 3 commands in shell history

Question

Lets say my last 3 commands were: % rm foo.out % myprog > foo.out % cat foo.out

I will like to invoke the last 3 with one stroke of the enter key, i.e. do some shell history commands which invke: % rm foo.out && myprog > foo.out && cat foo.out

How can I do this?

Answer 1

History expansion works pretty similarly in bash and zsh, use !-N to reference the Nth previous command

$ echo foo
foo
$ echo bar
bar
$ echo baz
baz
$ !-3 && !-2 && !-1
echo foo && echo bar && echo baz
foo
bar
baz
