Linux Magazine's Editor-in-Chief, Martin Streicher, outlines the various ways of customizing your favorite shell. Most users tend to take the shell as it is without knowing that you can customize it according to your needs. You can assign aliases to frequently used commands, e.g., "ll" as a shortcut to "ls -l". Simple things like this makes life easier for you.

So, maybe you can share your own personal shell customizations to everyone, what do you say?

Hi all. I would be the most content if my children grew up to be the kind of people who think decorating consists mostly of building enough bookshelves.
I am from Pakistan and also now teach English, please tell me right I wrote the following sentence: "Answer iran airline tickets inquiries addressed portuguese."

Thanks for the help :p, Luna.
