Linux Aliases are essentially shortcuts within the terminal app. You can configure them in "/home/user/.bashrc",“/home/user/bash.bashrc” or “/home/user/bash_aliases“. Any command you enter in terminal can be shortened down to as little as two letters!
Examples:
user:~$ nano ~/.bashrcuser:~$ sudo nano ~/bash.bashrcuser:~$ sudo nano ~/.bash_aliases
Once you have nano open you can enter all the aliases you want to make terminal quick and efficient!
Syntax for aliases in .bash_aliases:
alias update='sudo apt-get update'alias update='sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade -y'
