From bash to zsh and everywhere in between, show me yours and I’ll show you mines. Inspire others or get some feedback.

Simply copy & paste the output of alias in your terminal or add some comments to explain things for others.

    You couldn’t even work if you made a few longer commonly used commands convenient aliases? Well alright.

    I can’t imagine how you feel about bash scripts lol.

      Not the person you responded to, but sure. Breaking muscle memory is extremely grating.

      Also, it’s pretty easy to type long commands with little typing. If you use ctrl+r to search backward in your history, you can easily recall long commands - and also, you can use ctrl+x,ctrl+e to edit the current command line in $EDITOR so you can edit long commands. These two tricks make it very easy to type long commands quickly with very little typing.
