Some commonly used, but deprecated, aliases in the Bash shell:
alias ls='ls --color=auto' # use colors alias la='ls -Fa' # list all files alias ll='ls -Fls' # long listing format alias rm='rm -i' # prompt before overwrite (but dangerous, see Rm for a better approach) alias cp='cp -i' # prompt before overwrite (same general problem as the rm) alias mv='mv -i' # prompt before overwrite (same general problem as the rm) alias vi='vim' # use improved vi editorStandard aliases of Windows PowerShell include:
new-alias cd set-location new-alias ls get-childitem new-alias dir get-childitem new-alias echo write-output new-alias ps get-process new-alias kill stop-processRead more about this topic: Alias (command)
Famous quotes containing the word typical:
“A building is akin to dogma; it is insolent, like dogma. Whether or no it is permanent, it claims permanence, like a dogma. People ask why we have no typical architecture of the modern world, like impressionism in painting. Surely it is obviously because we have not enough dogmas; we cannot bear to see anything in the sky that is solid and enduring, anything in the sky that does not change like the clouds of the sky.”
—Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)
