# Aliases 

Aliases in your terminal make shortcuts a lot easier when you're typing, use them properly

- Setting #1 : default text  editor alias since my editor of  choice is [BBEdit](obsidian://open?vault=Coding%20Tips&file=Computers%2FMac%20OS%20X%2FBBEdit%2FBBEdit): 
  
``alias bbedit "open -a bbedit"``
  
then in the terminal type  
  
``bbedit FILE_NAME``

Aliases within your `.bashrc` file is just endlessly useful. This [stackOverflow answer ](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/16199581/open-sublime-text-from-terminal-in-macos/19556342#19556342)gets a lot of it right.

### Shebang 

This is a command that you often see at the top of the command but you never know what it does. This is used for every single type of Unix-like dydyem and is used to interpet an executable file. It is usually starting with `#!/` and leads to somewhere else.

Example:
```
#!/usr/bin/env sh 
Hello World! 
```

& you run the executable after `touch` creating one by: 
```
chmod +x name_of_the_file

```
