Bash config

Useful set of functions and aliases.

Usage

• Clone this repository

  git clone https://github.com/InternetGuru/bashcfg.git ~/bashcfg

• Run the install script, preview its changes first with --dry-run

  ~/bashcfg/install --dry-run
  ~/bashcfg/install

  It makes ~/.bashrc source bashcfg (a block marked # >>> bashcfg >>>) and removes aliases defined before that block which bashcfg redefines or which are obsolete (egrep, fgrep). Duplicate functions and definitions after the block are reported only. The original is kept as ~/.bashrc.bak-<timestamp>. Run it again after updating bashcfg or moving the directory.

• Browse what is defined; every alias and function is described in the source files

  alias             # list aliases
  declare -F        # list function names
  type NAME         # show what NAME is and its definition
