linux commands aliases

[edelweis]

so I use Chinese menus and IME and now I'd like to make myself an alias file so that I can type commands in Chinese in terminals until I have both the pinyin and wubi memorized...

If someone already has such an alias file, could you please post it?

Here is the list I have for now, please correct if something is wrong:

alias 查看=ls

alias 移动=mv

alias 改名=mv

alias 复制=cp

alias 创建目录=mkdir

alias 删除目录=rmdir

alias 删除=rm

alias 生成=make

alias 安装='make install'

alias 测试='make check'

alias 创建链接=ln

alias 跳到=cd

alias 压包='tar -c'

alias 解包='tar -x'

alias 编译文本=vim

alias 检测组态='./configure'

and, is there any difference between 链接 and 连接 ??

[edit: added alias commands and corrected according to Imron's information]

[imron]

and, is there any difference between 链接 and 连接 ??

Yes. The former means link and the latter means connect/connection. e.g.

给你一个链接 － Here is a link (e.g. a hyperlink to a website).

连接服务器失败 - Connection to server failed

Not sure which is most common translation used for symbolic links, but I would lean towards 链接.

thanks Imron.

what about ./configure? should I alias it to something like 检测组态 ?

[imron]

Can't help with that one sorry. I'm guessing most Chinese people would just say 'configure'

Also, a minor nitpick, tar by itself doesn't do any compression so technically 压缩 and 解压 are not 100% correct (you'd have to add the z flag fix that).

[edelweis]

well, sometimes I need z (gzip) and sometimes j (bzip2), but perhaps there is a more appropriate Chinese word (something to do with archiving perhaps?)

[imron]

Maybe 压包 and 解包? I don't know, but probably something with 包.

[edelweis]

thanks again. I updated the alias list...

You should keep rm in english to avoid problems.

[edelweis]

what kind of problems :o is typing 删除 more dangerous than typing rm?
