greetings
I have this issue:
in /root/.bashrc there is an alias which breaks my script in the following
way:
When I need to copy or del a file the rm -i and cp -i are preventing things
from running smoothly.
I have tried numerous tricks none work?
could some-one please show me how you work around this without editing the
basrc files?
Unless you have gone out of your way to enable them, aliases are ignored
in non-interactive shells. Here is the relevant excerpt from the bash
manpage:
Aliases are not expanded when the shell is not interactive,
unless the expand_aliases shell option is set using shopt
(see the description of shopt under SHELL BUILTIN COMMANDS
below).
