Adding an Alias

• What is the alias command? (e.g. hello)
• Is there any specific path for the command run? (e.g. /Users/SandeepK1729/Projects) (Optional - It will run in the current directory if not specified)

Example Interaction:

◇  What is the command to alias?
│  echo "hello world"
│
◇  What is the alias command ?
│  hello
│
◇  Is there any specific path for the command run? (Optional - It will run in the current directory if not specified)
│  /Users/SandeepK1729/Projects
│
◇  Added alias 'hello' to run command: 'echo "hello world"'

Running an Alias

jarvis hello

If a path was provided while creating the alias, the command runs in that directory; otherwise, it runs in the current working directory.

> echo "hello world"
> PID: 1234

"hello world"
