Red Hat 5.1 is where I learned the Alias trick. I discovered a few of
their aliases by accident. Actually I had suspected they were there. The
Amiga people adopted a lot of the 'ix world tricks, some clever mainframe
tricks, some clever VMS tricks, and so on. I figured alias would be on
'ix. But I tripped over "ll", I think it was, early on. (That is an
alias for "ls -l".)
It's surprising you never ran across it. It's a wonderful tool!
(And I'm a little testy today. I explained to someone why I tend to
sign nearly anonymously most of the time. I was probably one of the
very first online stalking victims in the world. It was a nasty nasty
experience. I've been very wary ever since.)

Yes, I had to ask, because I've never (knowingly) used alias before.
You will have to forgive me, I've only been using linux since redhat
5.1.
