Question

How do i create a shortcut command in Putty to go to a path? e.g. i am lazy to type in a long path to acccess into the Error folder. I want to just type in “Error” in the putty and it will link me to the folder.

I have seen someone do that. Please advice

You can just alias “Error” to “cd /path/to/your/Error” in your ~/.bashrc

Something like this:

alias Error='cd /path/to/your/Error'

And after a re-login or source ~/.bashrc you will be able to use it.
