  This is probably a very simple thing but I can’t find an answer, possibly because I don’t know what terms to use in search. How do I use an alias of a path with mv or cp? Or even cd? In /etc/bash.bashrc I have: alias docs=‘/media/docs cd docs Gives “No such file or directory” Yet: docs Gives “Is directory” With alias docs=‘cd /media/docs’ and by typing docs I get into the directory. Obviously I can’t use that alias with mv or cp though. Maybe this isn’t even an intended use of alias...
