how to 'not' execute alias [duplicate]
I have set few aliases in .bashrc
file. I need those aliases most of the time, but sometimes I need to run those command without options set in that particular alias.
How to not execute alias command?
Run the command with a leading \
, an answer in examples: ;)
% ls
bar foo
% alias ls="ls -laog"
% ls
total 4292
drwxrwxr-x 4 4329472 Nov 5 15:06 .
drwx------ 95 28672 Nov 5 15:15 ..
-rw-rw-r-- 1 0 Nov 5 15:06 bar
drwxrwxr-x 2 4096 Nov 5 15:06 foo
drwxrwxr-x 2 4096 Okt 2 14:29 .foo
-rw-rw-r-- 1 191 Feb 25 2015 .htaccess
% \ls
bar foo
Slightly longer but also possible:
command ls
You can use shell builtin command
to escape aliases (and functions):
command alias_name
For example:
command ls
will run /bin/ls
binary , not any alias defined as ls
.
An alternative is to use quotes:
"alias_name"
or
'alias_name'
For example:
"ls"
or
'ls'
these again will run the /bin/ls
binary, ignoring any alias ls
.
