Ubuntu goodies alias for all

The recent blog post says that 'll' should now work in bash to do same as 'ls -l'. Has this been implemented for all? I am trying it in a new Bash console and get:

23:02 ~ $ ll
bash: ll: command not found

I would have expected the same output as 'ls -l'. Or am I misunderstanding?

I don't know why the blog post said that because it clearly doesn't work. Tomorrow I'll try to find out what happened.

Did we ever find out what was up with this? I just tried it again and still I don't see it working. The blog post still lists it. Only for paid accounts? Or am I not making the right kind of console?

Hi wayne, it was just a mistake on the part of Harry. If you want the ll alias. Just add a line to your .bashrc that looks something like this:

alias ll='ls -alhF'

That's what I have in mine anyway.

yep, i'm an idiot...

Hey, all you did was sell features to customers before they were actually implemented. That's not being an idiot, that's just working in Sales & Marketing... (^_^)
