If you put the quotes backwards it will. You're looking for the ones
next to the '1'. :)

You do not need to logout and log backin to make new alias's in a .bachrc
file take affect. Just use "source .bashrc". This is a UNIX command to
execute a script file.

If you are using bash enter the terminal and type
alias the_new_command_name='the_original_command_name' just like
that

When I make aliases, I put them into the /etc/bashrc file, so that no
matter who I login as, I always have them. Here is how I formatted my
aliases:
alias ls="ls -Fa --color"
This would alias the "ls" command to show all dot files in color. Othere
commands should be similar such as:
alias rm=

Hi everyone:
I am trying to set up some aliases for frequently used commands.
I have tried adding them to ~/.bashrc and /etc/profile and /etc/bashrc,
but have not had any luck in getting bash to recognize the aliases.
Would there be any reason at all that my ~/.bashrc would not get
read by bash
