interesting, as i have in my ~/.bashrc;

# User specific aliases and functions
alias rm='rm -i'
alias cp='cp -i'
alias mv='mv -i'
alias d='ls'
alias s='cd ..'
alias p='cd -'

### added
alias bye='sudo shutdown -h now'
alias ca='clear;history -c'
alias cs='clear'
alias ch='history -c'
alias dfs='df -B 1024|grep /dev/hd|sort'
alias hm='cd -P'
alias kde='startx'
alias whom='who -HimqT'

and i get;

[geo argosyiayia ~]$ alias
alias bye='sudo shutdown -h now'
alias ca='clear;history -c'
alias ch='history -c'
alias cp='cp -i'
alias cs='clear'
alias d='ls'
alias dfs='df -B 1024|grep /dev/hd|sort'
alias hm='cd -P'
alias kde='startx'
alias l.='ls -d .* --color=tty'
alias ll='ls -l --color=tty'
alias ls='ls --color=tty'
alias mv='mv -i'
alias p='cd -'
alias rm='rm -i'
alias s='cd ..'
alias vi='vim'
alias which='alias | /usr/bin/which --tty-only --read-alias --show-dot \
   --show-tilde'
alias whom='who -HimqT'
[geo argosyiayia ~]$

something must be wrong with my systems, as this is what i have been
doing from first use of linux.

also, executing '. .bashrc' will cause a rereading of '.bashrc' with out
need of log out/in.



peace out.
