- Create a file in /etc/profile.d such as aliases.sh.
- Add your aliases to the file.
- Log off and log back on.
- Your aliases should work.
As an example, I do a lot of administration through my smart phone (Nexus 6P on Google Fi), so I hate typing long commands. The two commands I use more than any others are "sudo yum -y update" and "exit". (Okay, "exit" isn't a long command, but still...)
Here's the contents of the aliases.sh file I created in /etc/profile.d:
alias yu="sudo yum -y update"
alias x="exit"
Now, all I have to do to run a yum update is type "yu" and all I have to do to exit is type "x".
I can (and will) add whatever other aliases I want to simplify my life to /etc/profile.d/aliases.sh.
Hope that helps.
Peace.
