For example if I have a setup like:
alias llaa = pwd && ll'''
Will the second command work, or would I have to set it up in a more verbose manner (like ```alias llaa = pwd && ls -la```)You must log in or register to comment.
You wanna use double quotes to wrap it:
alias llaa=“pwd && ll’‘’”
I think you don’t want the spaces around the= sign. Preferred over alias is function llaa { … }. Alias is for backwards compatibility.

Again what learned. What is wrong with having spaces around the equals sign, though?
I think it might not work with the spaces. But if it does, then you are fine.
Should work. Just try it out and see if you get what you want. I tried:
alias llaa='pwd && ll'then ran
llaaand it did what I expected, current directory and the output ofls -alwhich is aliased.
