I am currently looking for a way to easily store and run commands, usually syncing files between two deeply nested directories whenever I want.

So far I found these projects:

Other solutions:

  • Bash history using ^+r
  • Bash aliases
  • Bash functions

What do you guys use?

  • I more or less was just looking for a general survey of what other people used.

    I agree installing a binary for this small kind of thing might be excessive.
