-====== BASH - Aliases - Local vs Global ======
-Aliases can be global, i.e. apply by default to every user on the system.
-However each user can also have their own aliases which only apply to them.
-----
-===== Global Aliases =====
-----
-===== Local Aliases =====
-Local aliases are specific to the user.
-These aliases should be defined in a file named **.bash_aliases** user's home directory.
-<file bash ~/.bash_aliases>
-alias apt='sudo apt-get'
-alias update='sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get autoremove && sudo apt-get autoclean'
-</file>

-To apply the changes immediately to your bash profile without having to log out, simply run this:
-<code bash>

-or
-<code bash>
