Thanks snowhog! If I had looked at the other aliases in the file, I would have seen my errors. I was just using the systax that csh uses - without thinking. I also just set a world record for the number of typos in a row. After trying about 5 times I got it right. It works now.
You 'might' want to consider putting aliases in a .bash_aliases file. It's suggested in the .bashrc file:
# Alias definitions.
# You may want to put all your additions into a separate file like
# ~/.bash_aliases, instead of adding them here directly.
# See /usr/share/doc/bash-doc/examples in the bash-doc package.
if [ -f ~/.bash_aliases ]; then
. ~/.bash_aliases
fi
Note above, that .bashrc is already setup to use it if you create it. That's were I have my aliases.
