Here are my two favorite sets of aliases.
-Tom
# mark, unmark, Mark, unMark, marklist -----------------------------------------
# Use 'Mark foo' to remember a directory location. Then at any time
# you can type 'foo' to go back to that location.
# unMark removes the remembered location.
# Works like saving buffer locations in registers in emacs.
# ~/.Mark must exist
alias mark_cd cd
alias mark 'set \!:1=$cwd; alias \!:1 mark_cd $cwd'
alias Mark 'unMark \!:1; mark \!:1; (echo alias \!:1 mark_cd $cwd; echo
set \!:1 = $cwd) >> ~/.Mark'
alias unmark 'unset \!:1; unalias \!:1'
alias unMark 'unmark \!:1; sed -e "/ \!:1 /d" < ~/.Mark > ~/.Mark.new;
/bin/mv ~/.Mark.new ~/.Mark'
alias marklist 'alias | grep "(mark_cd" | grep -v "marklist" | sed -e
"s/(mark_cd //" -e "s/)//"'
source ~/.Mark
# These aliases change the meaning of rm so that files--------------------------
# are saved in ~/etc/garbage. Thus if you accidentally
# delete a file you want, you can retrieve it (unrm).
# You must create the directory ~/garbage if you
# wish to use these.
alias rm '/bin/mv -f \!:* ~/garbage'
alias unrm '/bin/mv ~/garbage/\!:* .'
alias expunge '/bin/rm -rf ~/garbage/{*,.[0-~]*}'
alias trash '/usr/local/bin/ls $LS_OPTIONS -Fa ~/garbage'
