Question

It’s easy to do a one word alias in ZSH.

alias ll='ls -lah'

Is there a way to do two word aliases with Zsh, so that both words are parsed as part of the same alias? I’d mostly like to use it for typo fixes.

alias 'gits t'='git st'

Answer 1

Try this:

alias func='gits t'
func() {
    'gits t'='git st'
}
