aliases in grass

Hello,

Could anyone please tell me how, if possible, to set up an alias in GRASS. When I'm in GRASS, it no longer reads the aliases that I have set up in my .cshrc file. Editing the .grassrc file does not work.

Thank you.

Thank you.

edit your GIS.sh file and do it there.

This is a small example how I have added aliases to the
$GISBASE/etc/GIS.sh file
In this way you will allow every person to also have personal
aliases in the .aliases file in their home directory.
