I want use kj 1 for kill -9 %1

I try:

alias kj='kill -9 %'

but I can't use either kj1 or kj 1.

It's there any way to do this?

Does this help? Make a Bash alias that takes a parameter? – Eduardo Trápani Jun 05 '20 at 03:52
Does it have to be an alias? To quote the bash manual For almost every purpose, aliases are superseded by shell functions. – icarus Jun 05 '20 at 03:53
thanks, it work, using kj() { kill -9 %$@}, and sometime need unalias kj first – OverSang Jun 05 '20 at 05:55
