I want to create alias for nvim, so I tried:



alias nvim=$HOME/apps/neovim/nvim.appimage
alias nvim="$HOME/apps/neovim/nvim.appimage"
alias nvim='$HOME/apps/neovim/nvim.appimage'
eval "alias nvim='$HOME/apps/neovim/nvim.appimage'"
echo 'alias nvim="$HOME/apps/neovim/nvim.appimage"' >> ~/.bash_aliases
echo 'alias nvim="$HOME/apps/neovim/nvim.appimage"' >> ~/.bash_aliases && source ~/.bash_aliases


And it's work only if I type one of this commands by my hands, but if I place it to bash script and run it, their didn't work.

  • Just put the commands to create the aliases in your shell script. You could do . ~/.bash_aliases in your shell scripts. It would be better to specify full path to .bash_aliases instead of using ~.

  • @melpomene that's mean, after script execute, alias didn't created.
