How to Set Alias Names in Ubuntu

To set an alias name in Ubuntu, follow these steps:

1. Open the Terminal application.
2. Type the following command: 'nano .bashrc' and press Enter.
3. Scroll down to the end of the file and add the following line: 'alias aliasname='command'' (replace 'aliasname' with your desired name and 'command' with the command you want to alias).
4. Press Ctrl+X to exit Nano and save the changes.
5. Type the following command: 'source .bashrc' and press Enter to reload the terminal.
6. Now you can use your alias by typing the alias name instead of the command.

For example, if you want to set an alias for the 'ls -la' command to 'll', you would add the following line to the .bashrc file:

'alias ll='ls -la''

Then you can use the 'll' command to list all files and directories in the current directory with their permissions and ownership information.
