Shell Config and Alises

.md

Since aliases created in terminal are only local to sessions, to make them permanent, you would have to write them in your system's ~/.bashrc file.

Open ~/.bashrc in your editor of choice:

vim ~/.bashrc

Simply write your commands (aliases/scripts) in this file, save [requires root permissions] and exit.

Now that your aliases are in this file, everytime you start a new session, all you'd have to do is load these all scripts/commands in this file using:

. ~/.bashrc

or

source ~/.bashrc

All aliases and scripts written in ~/.bashrcare now loaded and you can check that by writing alias in your terminal, which should list all available aliases.

To execute an alias/script, all you need to do is call it by its name and provide any rewuited params
