10.3: Using ~/.tcshrc file to make Permanent Aliased Commands
Authored by: SuperGenius on Oct 30, '03 10:08:17AM
You can make this addition once; you never have to issue another command.

To make ll always do what you want, place the following entry in your ~/.tcshrc file. (Create the ~/.tcshrc file if it doesn't already exist. That's a file called .tcshrc in your home directory). Add the following line to this file :

alias ll 'ls -l'
You can also add any other flags after the " -l " to customize your file-listing experience. See the man page for ls (type " man ls ") to see all the options that you can use to customize the ls command.
