Is it possible to define a command in bash?
just type:
alias gb='cd /media/Dan/evolution'
To make this setting permanent (so that it sticks after you restart or open another console) add this line to the file ~/.bashrc (assuming you use the bash as your default shell)
Alternative to aliasing
gb() { cd /media/Dan/evolution; }
This defines shell function gb, which takes no arguments, and performs cd /media/Dan/evolution. As with other suggeststions, this can be added to ~/.bashrc
It is possible, and alias
is the command you're looking for. For example alias ll="ls -l"
in bash will let you type ll
instead of ls -l
. Please note there are no spaces used when setting an alias. man alias
can be useful as well.
