I have a number of aliases defined in my .bashrc. E.g:
alias ls='ls -la --color'
The thing is that sometimes I want to selectively not use the expansion. E.g. so that I can do a:
ls -a
One solution I’ve found is to do a:
`which ls` -a
when I want to not use the alias. But I am wondering if there is another established idiom for doing that.
Escape the command used as an alias.
