Get Out Of Jail Free!

[Octavian Rasnita]

You can define a simple command like "error" and when you type that command
it will execute another longer and harder to type command like:
tail /etc/httpd/conf/yourname.error_log

But this is not very helpful.
I would like something faster.

For example, I am in pine, and I would like to open another application in
another console.
I would like to press Control+alt+g, and that hotkey to start another
console with the defined application opened.

Unfortunately this is not possible under Linux, only under Windows.
I hope these features will be  available under the Linux GUI.

You can use the "alias" command to equate a "command name" to the
commands
you wish executed.
     I have read this sentence several times and have no idea
what it means.  Please explainand give an example.

     Thanks
