NAME

listalias - list user and system aliases

SYNOPSIS

listalias [ -s | -u ] [ regular-expression ]

DESCRIPTION

Listalias outputs a line per alias in both the user and the system aliases. Each line is of the form;

   <alias>     <address>  (<comment>)

If an optional regular expression is used, just the aliases that match the specified expression are listed. If not, they are all listed.

Either way, the output is sorted.

OPTIONS

?s

Display only the system aliases. ?s and ?u are mutually exclusive.

?u

Display only the user aliases. ?s and ?u are mutually exclusive.

BUGS

Since the program uses a pipe to egrep, how expressions are evaluated is a function of that program, not this one!
