Re: Shell aliases as shell-commands

[Michael Heerdegen]

Hello,

I agree that that my solution with BASH_ENV is not very clean. I would
suggest the following elisp code which works without setting env vars:

(defadvice shell-command (before my-shell-command activate)
  (ad-set-arg
   0
   (concat "source ~/.bashrc; shopt -s -q expand_aliases;\n "
      (ad-get-arg 0))))

(you could replace .bashrc by an individual file especially written
for that purpose).

What do you think about it?
