Linux Commands: Create an alias
alias-Linux Command
alias Command- Create an alias
Syntax:
alias [-p] [name[=value] ...]
unalias [-a] [name ... ]
Description:
The alias command will list your current aliases. You can use unalias to remove the alias (to disable it just for one command add a "\" (back-slash) before the command)...
An alias allows one command to be substituted for another. This is used to make a command do something else or to automatically add certain options. This can be either be done during one session using the alias command (see below) or the information can be added to the .bashrc file (found in the users home directory).
