    If like me you have no memory, use aliases often.

    Put them in a dedicated file, I find it easier to manage. You’ll need to modify bashrc or zshrc to link to the new file. Big plus, they now work with both. I don’t know if it can be done with fish.

    Now my favorite tip for us brainless: start aliases with an easy to reach character you most likely wouldn’t use in a terminal. I use “é”, on a french keyboard.

    é+tab: all my aliases é+t+tab: I see “étarextract” (there it is), “étext-edit”, “étodo”

    I don’t even need to remember aliases. I don’t need to remember anything!
    Imathop out.
