Question How to create multiple word alias

Hi,

I have created a script which will move the file passed as $1 to a particular folder.

In the .profile of my unix user i have created an alias as

alias rm="$HOME/script"

Now i want that to do

alias rm="$HOME/script"

alias \rm="$HOME/script"

alias \rm -rf ="$HOME/script"

alias rm -rf ="$HOME/script"


It does not take rm -rf as ab alias.
How to do this.
