Ken,
It still doesn't work after putting the aliases in ~/.bashrc )-:
I also tried putting them in ~/profile.ksh but it didn't work either.
I did this one time, and there was a file in a certain location where I
added them to, but I don't remember where it was...
I tried putting them in as follows:
alias ll='ls -l'
alias h='history'
alias main='cd /cygdrive/c/depot/source/main'
alias ob2='cd /cygdrive/c/depot/Projects/ob2'
alias depot='cd /cygdrive/c/depot'
Thanks,
Pat//

If you are talking about aliases within the bash shell, setting them in
~/.bashrc is a place used by many.
