Message definition (Aliases in .bashrc)

Let’s create a simple bash function which will create a directory and then navigate into it:
{{File|file=~/.bashrc|
content=<pre>...
mkcd ()
{
mkdir -p -- "$1" && cd -P -- "$1"
}
...</pre>}}
Now instead of using mkdir to create a new directory and then cd to move into that directory , you can simply type:
{{UserCmd|command=mkcd new_directory}}
==Keeping bash alias in a different file==
Bash allows you to add local aliases in your ~/.bashrc file. To do this create a file called ~/.bash_aliases and add these contents in your ~/.bashrc file:
{{File|file=~/.bashrc|
content=<pre>...
if [ -e $HOME/.bash_aliases ]; then
source $HOME/.bash_aliases
fi
...</pre>}}
Now you can add any aliases in your ~/.bash_aliases file and then load them into your Bash session with the source ~/.bashrc command.
==Conclusion==
This list is not comprehensive. Almost anything that is commonly used can be shortened with an alias
