Options passed on the command line (as in an alias) override any others. I assume a function would be equivalent to an alias here, but I haven't checked as I don't use them. There used to be debates on the efficiency of alias versus function, but if they're only taking nanoseconds to execute, what does it matter? -- Regards, Peter.
