The code does not work
scp ~/Desktop/favicon.ico nameOfBashAlias:/public_html/mySite/templates/blog/
The alias is
alias nameOfBashAlias='ssh [email protected]'
How can you solve the problem?
[edit]
Is a similar code to the following code possible, like running many bashes?

it seems that if i use
alias ls='ls -F'
inside of .bashrc on Mac OS X, then the newly created shell will not have that alias. I need to type bash again and that alias will be in effect.
and if i log into linux on the hosting company, the .bashrc has a comment line that says:
for non-login shell
and
.bash_profile has a comment

Is there any way I could use grep to ignore some files when searching something, something equivalent to svnignore or gitignore? I usually use something like this when searching source code.
grep -r something * | grep -v ignore_file1 | grep -v ignore_file2
Even if I could set up an alias to grep to ignore these files would be good.

I have a .bash_profile script and I can't get the following to work
alias lsls='ls -l | sort -n +4'
when I type the alias lsls
it does the sort but then posts this error message
"-bash: +4: command not found"
How do I get the alias to work with '+4'?
It works when type ls -l | sort -n +4 in the command line

I know how to config aliases in bash but is there a way to configure an alias for a sequence of commands?
i.e say I want one command to change to a particular directory, then run another command
In addition, is there a way to setup a command that runs "sudo mycommand" then enters the password? In the MSDOS days I'd be looking for a .bat...

OSX: This works from the command line: alias ruby="/opt/local/bin/ruby1.9"
but in side a shell script, it has no effect. I want to write a script that will switch between ruby 1.8 and ruby 1.9, so this needs to be a script - not in my profile.
It appears "source script.sh" works, but "./script.sh". Why is this? How can I replicate...
I can't get expand_aliases to take effect in bash. I've tried a lot of different things, and nothing works.
Here's the simple test case:
/bin/bash -c 'shopt -s expand_aliases; alias cdtmp="cd /tmp"; alias; cdtmp; pwd;'
And the output:
$ /bin/bash -c 'shopt -s expand_aliases; alias cdtmp="cd /tmp"; alias; cdtmp; pwd;'

I want to define my own aliases without interfering with anyone.
In the .bashrc, I define a alias to my bash file defining my own aliases.

How can I find out where an alias is defined on my system? I am referring to the kind of alias that is used within a Terminal session launched from Mac OS X (10.6.3).
For example, if I enter the alias command with no parameters at a Terminal command prompt, I get a list of aliases that I have set, for example, this is one of them

The mark " in Vim takes you to your last cursor position. I want to create an alias that will open my Vim instance and jump to that mark; something which is obviously extremely useful.
This works from the command line:

$ alias v='vim -c "'\""'
Well that's not goin...

I used to have this sweet alias for du I called dusort that would print out a human-readable list of sizes for the top-level subdirectories+files sorted by size. It was like a mini-filelight for mac that runs in terminal.
But now my alias is broken after I copied it to my new mac running Mac OS 10.6. Apparently the sort I used either ca...
