RE[2]: How does one set aliases for Cygwin for XP Prof Windows? - Still doesn't work!


Ken,

It still doesn't work after putting the aliases in ~/.bashrc  )-:
I also tried putting them in ~/profile.ksh but it didn't work either.
I did this one time, and there was a file in a certain location where I
added them to, but I don't remember where it was...

I tried putting them in as follows:

alias ll='ls -l'
alias h='history'
alias main='cd /cygdrive/c/depot/source/main'
alias ob2='cd /cygdrive/c/depot/Projects/ob2'
alias depot='cd /cygdrive/c/depot'


Thanks,

Pat//

If you are talking about aliases within the bash shell, setting them in 
~/.bashrc is a place used by many.
