Question

For example, instead of typing all 5 commands in my terminal:

command 1
command 2
command 3
command 4
command 5

I just want to enter one command that runs all 5 commands above:

command everything

Is that possible? What would I need to edit in Ubuntu to do so?

Answer 1

If you’re running a bash shell, you can type

alias commandall='command1 ; command2 ; command3 ; command4; command5'

Then commandall will run these commands

You can put the alias in your ~/.bashrc file and it will be there whenever you log in.
