Creating Command Aliases

Winzy includes an add-alias command that allows you to create custom command aliases by generating Windows batch files. This is especially useful for creating shortcuts to commonly used commands.

winzy add-alias ls=dir $*
winzy add-alias cp=copy $*
winzy add-alias open=start $*
winzy add-alias search=start https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=$*
winzy add-alias newsuk=start http://news.google.co.uk
winzy add-alias cat=type $*
winzy add-alias cal=python -m calendar $1 $2
winzy add-alias serve=set ptemp=%cd%  & cd $* & start python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8888 & cd %ptemp%
winzy add-alias web=python -m webbrowser -t $*
winzy add-alias news=start http://news.google.co.in
winzy add-alias touch=python -c "open('$1','w').close()"

The created aliases are stored as batch files in ~/.local/bin/ directory and will be available from your command line once that directory is in your PATH.
