I can't figure out why this simple alias isn't work. I've read online an example on creating it and don't know where I'm going wrong...
I've added the following to my .profile
file at the bottom:
alias profile='sudo nano ~/.profile'
When I type in 'profile' in the terminal it says command not found...
I have a feeling this is a very very simple error I'm making.
Thanks everyone!
What happens if you log out and back in?
Alternatively you could just type
source .profile
and that should activate your alias. Many people using bash
set their aliases up in the .bashrc
file.
