| You need to put bash shell aliases in the ~/.bashrc file file executed by bash for non-login shells. On most modern Linux distros, you may want to put all your bash alias definitions into a separate file like ~/.bash_aliases, instead of adding them in the ~/.bashrc file directly. | |
| Please note that ~/.bash_aliases file only works if the following line presents in the ~/.bashrc file: | |
| if [ -f ~/.bash_aliases ]; then | |
| . ~/.bash_aliases | |
| fi | |
| Edit ~/.bash_aliases or ~/.bashrc with the editor of your choice | |
| Append your bash alias with for example with: alias ll='ls -la' | |
| Save and close the file. | |
| Activate alias by typing: source ~/.bash_aliases |
