Thanks, Jay. Like you, I have gotten the majority of my aliases from others, kudos to them! Been doing aliases for years, but I always put them in the .bash_aliases file instead of .bashrc. That way they are always in the same place and I can quickly copy the .bashrc to other desktops.
I think aliases are great, except when I use them for longer commands I tend to forget those commands, and I have to create them manually on every server on which I work. Which makes me forget the important longer commands faster. Great video none the less.
This is how I got my "Thanks!" with a "My pleasure." response. I was trying to write a bash script for it but what a hassle! But the no contraction thing is a pain...ROFL!
one of my favourites on my laptop is alias cls = "clear", What it does is it allows me to use the windows command "cls" in my linux terminals, I have it on my laptop's .bash_aliases file
Hello i have one question if it’s possible to answer me. I want to create alias like..when i turn on linux i want them to ask me for number and when i put number i want to list some names. Do you have any idea how to do that?
I had to write this command "source ~/.bashrc" for it to work, but when I restart my terminal I had to do that again. Anyone else has the same problem?
A bit dangerous to have an alias always download a file from GitHub and run it ad-hoc. Would be better to just pull down the python script and review first.

This geriatric newbie signed back in to RUclips after a long while away because of this very useful tutorial. Thanks a bunch :-) Subscribing NOW!
You should edit: *.bash_aliases* for all your aliases. Leave *.bashrc* for other things!

Very Helpful....Thank you very much😆😆😆
Great video, as always!
What are your thoughts on placing the aliases in the .bash_aliases file vs .bashrc file?
Can you chain together a bunch of other alias's for alias-ception?
Thank you very much!
Is there a limitation of how many aliases we can use? Is there a way to increase the number of aliases? Thanks.
I don't think there is a limit aside from storage
All Hail the Mighty Algorithm for recommending this video....

I like alias mtu="ip l | grep \$(ip r| awk '/default/ {print \$5}')|awk '{print \$2, \$4, \$5}'"
mysshd="service sshd "
