How do I create alias in Linux?
As you can see, the Linux alias syntax is very easy:
- Start with the alias command.
- Then type the name of the alias you want to create.
- Then an = sign, with no spaces on either side of the =
- Then type the command (or commands) you want your alias to execute when it is run.
How do I create an alias?
An alias declaration starts with the alias keyword followed by the alias name, an equal sign and the command you want to run when you type the alias. The command needs to be enclosed in quotes and with no spacing around the equal sign. Each alias needs to be declared on a new line.
