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// -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ken Dibble Sent: Friday, July 22, 2005 3:02 PM To: cygwin Subject: Re: How does one set aliases for Cygwin for XP Prof Windows?
