Unix Aliases

Absolutely awesome. If you have a command you use over and over again, chuck it in a login script and give it an alias.

When using the bash shell, include aliases in ~/.bash_login (create the file if it doesn't exist already). Some useful aliases I've already added in macOS are the following:

• alias ll='ls -la'
• alias clr='clear'
• alias here='open -a finder .'

The last one is really cool. It opens a finder window at the current terminal location.
