The last part '$1' isn't needed, eg,
tom$ alias frpm
alias frpm='rpm -qa | grep -i'
tom$ frpm rpm
grpmi-9.1-5mdk
rpmdrake-2.1-5mdk
perl-URPM-0.81-7mdk
gurpmi-4.2-16mdk
rpm-helper-0.9-1mdk
rpm-build-4.0.4-28mdk
rpm-4.0.4-28mdk
urpmi-4.2-16mdk
rpmtools-4.5-7mdk
Actually I believe the use of 'urpmq' (man urpmq) is better than
my alias, but it's hard to teach an old dog (like me) new tricks ;)
