Once again, you cannot export aliases. They are not shell variables. Think of them as limited string macros (limited because they are only evaluated at the beginning of each line of shell input).

OTOH you *can* export functions. poc -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
