Aliases
Aliases are a convenient way to assign a custom command to a name. You can use new names or re-assign existing command names.
alias myip="ip -json route get 8.8.8.8 | jq -r '.[].prefsrc'"
alias ls='ls -F'
You can retrieve the definition of an alias by running the alias
command without argument. To remove an alias, use unalias
.
You can use the non-aliased version of a command with \
(e.g. \ls
).
