bash aliases (See related posts)

For old duffers like me who were used to earlier shells when bash came along.

# These save typing, I use them a lot

alias sd='cd -' > /dev/null
alias cx='chmod +x'
alias which="type -path"

# This goes back to Unix v7, some time around 1985 I think.

alias lf='ls -CF'

# From my 'C' shell days. Those were almost 20 years ago as well. Sigh.

alias h='fc -l -20'
alias r='fc -s'

# Because real men use 'vi' and why use character mode if you have X?

alias vi='gvim'
