Again forgive me if this is the wrong list.
I looked over all of the mailing list and there isn't one for:
newbie shell scripting
beginner commandline c/c++
I opened a new file with vi calling it ll (LL) and I put the following
line in it:
ls -al
I then
chmod +x ll
sudo mv ll /usr/bin
it worked as I thought it would.
I then opened a new file with vi calling it myc and I put the
following line in it:
cd /Developer/sandbox/myc
I then
chmod +x myc
sudo mv myc /usr/bin
however when I myc nothing happens, literally, no error, and no change
in directory no matter where I am.
So 2 questions:
What dumb thing am I over looking here or is this a mac thing?
AND
I use to get into my .profile file on an AIX machine and I used
alias ll 'ls -al'
alias myc 'cd /Developer/sandbox/myc'
Is there a similar way to use aliases on the mac so I can have typing
short-cuts when on the commandline?
Steve -New to Mac
PS...I love this machine, I just want to learn to code on it and I'm
starting from the ground/commandline up!
Currently I'm using WROX Begiining Linux Programming
So any beginning mac programming site's or books or other info is
greatly appreciated.
