NAME

       unalias - Removes alias definitions

SYNOPSIS

       unalias alias-name...

       unalias -a

									  Note

       The C shell has a built-in version of the unalias command.  If you are using the C shell, and want to guarantee that you are using the com-
       mand described here, you must specify the full path /usr/bin/unalias.  See the csh(1) reference page for a description of the built-in com-
       mand.

STANDARDS

       Interfaces documented on this reference page conform to industry standards as follows:

       unalias:  XCU5.0

       Refer to the standards(5) reference page for more information about industry standards and associated tags.

OPTIONS

       Removes all alias definitions from the current shell execution environment.

OPERANDS

       The name of an alias to be removed.

DESCRIPTION

       The unalias utility removes the definition for each alias name specified. The aliases are removed from the current shell execution environ-
       ment.

EXIT STATUS

       The following exit values are returned: Successful completion.  One of the alias-name operands specified did not represent  a  valid  alias
       definition, or an error occurred.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       The  following  environment variables affect the execution of unalias: Provides a default value for the internationalization variables that
       are unset or null. If LANG is unset or null, the corresponding value from the default locale is used.  If any of  the  internationalization
       variables  contain  an  invalid	setting,  the  utility behaves as if none of the variables had been defined.  If set to a non-empty string
       value, overrides the values of all the other internationalization variables.  Determines the locale for the interpretation of sequences	of
       bytes of text data as characters (for example, single-byte as opposed to multibyte characters in arguments).  Determines the locale used to
       affect the format and contents of diagnostic messages written to standard error.  Determines the location of  message  catalogues  for  the
       processing of LC_MESSAGES.
