  "textContent": "Bash aliases are great. Whether you use them to quickly connect to servers or just soup up the standard bash commands, they are a useful tool for eliminating repetitive tasks. I'm always adding new ones to optimize my workflow which, of course, lead to me create aliases to optimize _that_ workflow. While there are more complete CLI alternatives for alias management like [aka][AKA], I prefer two simple commands for managing my aliases, which I keep in ~/.bash_aliases.\n\nThe aliases are eal for \"Edit ALiases\" and sal for \"Source ALiases\". The command subl is the OSX CLI for [Sublime Text][Sublime CLI]. For reference, . is the same as source. Enjoy.\n\n[AKA]: https://github.com/ytbryan/aka\n[Sublime CLI]: https://www.sublimetext.com/docs/2/osx_command_line.html",
