Hello,
I'm attempting to configure shell settings in my new Macbook. The standard unix command line 'alias' doesn't seem to be working:
Is there some new, strange syntax of which I am not aware?
Thanks!

I want to create a command alias. I know what shell I'm
using, I just don't know which file to inter the command alias.
When I type "echo $SHELL" the output is as follows:
