What are your most liked alias for long commands or just to give them better names.

Mine are:

alias load="source .load.sh"
alias eload="$EDITOR .load.sh"
alias gpush="git push"
alias gadd="git add --all"
alias gcommit="git commit -m "
alias gst="git status -s"
alias gpull="git pull"

    mkcd() { mkdir -p “$1” && cd “$1”; }

    Make a directory and immediately cd into it. I rarely make a directory and not cd into it.

    I always set these because I’ve been burned too many times:

    Turn on interactive mode for dangerous commands

    alias cp='cp -iv'
    alias mv='mv -iv'
    alias rm='rm -iv'

    I use this function to launch GUI apps from the shell without occupying that shell or cluttering it with their output:

    nown() {
            if [ -n "$1" ]
            then
                    nohup $@ &> /dev/null & disown
            else
                    echo "Don't give me a null command dumbass."
            fi
    }

      My variant (u mean “up” in my head)

      alias u  ='cd ..'
      alias uu ='cd ../..'
      alias uuu='cd ../../..'

    Technically not aliases but I have these in my ~/.bash_aliases so…

    bind ‘“\e[A”: history-search-backward’
    bind ‘“\e[B”: history-search-forward’

    Type a few letters and press up/down arrow to scroll through matching history entries.

    Also…

    alias s=“cd -”

    It’s like Alt+Tab for CLI.

      I found a function version of this version somewhere. Same thing except it defaults to my local area but can be overridden if you specify a different zip code.

      weather() {
       if [ $(command -v curl) ]; then
         if ! (($#)); then
           curl wttr.in/44113
         else
           curl wttr.in/$1
         fi
       else
         echo "curl not installed. Aborting."
       fi
      }

    For git and working with a mix of master and main default branch repos my favourite is gsm='git switch $(git_main_branch)' to switch back to main/master

      I mostly write my environment and aliases which are only ment to be used for a project by creating a file called .load.sh. It is mostly just things like alias run=“python main.py” or something

        Bacon is just compiler output but it “stays open” in your terminal and refreshes after you save your file; It is nice if you use something a bit minimal like vim without language server but you don’t want to compile manually every time.
