making aliases system wide

Hi All,

I know that alias shows all aliases, and alias dirmysql='cd 
/usr/local/mysql' allows me to just type dirmysql @ the promt to move to 
the mysql dir. But, how do I get this to be system wide and remain after 
a reboot. At the moment, if I open another terminal window after making 
the alias, it doesn't carry over to the new one. My book, Beginning 
Fedora2(I'm using 3 now) covers only how to make the alias. Could 
someone tell me what I need to make it permanent, or what I'm not 
understanding.? Cheers.

Mark Sargent.
