How can I create two identical aliases in bash?

Question

I want to create two different aliases to the same command without repeating myself. How can I do it in bash? For example, I want listlong and longlist to both be aliases to "ls -al".

Answer 1

alias {listlong,longlist}="ls -al"

That should do it.

Answer 2

alias listlong='ls -al'
alias longlist=listlong

And further changes of the alias listlong reflect on longlist too.

Answer 3

Here's a variation on cYrus's answer with even less repetition:

alias listlong='ls -al' longlist=listlong

If you want to do something similar but have them be independent:

cmd='ls -al'; alias listlong=$cmd longlist=$cmd

which has similar results to Janne Pikkarainen's answer (which is the least repetitive so far).
