I really like the idea, but I'd do even more so if I could install a cronjob to automatically download a file with all aliases I previously added to my online profile. Of course this comes with security implications you'd have to sort out. Please do this (or let me help you with it).

Edit: I just found the feature on the site and am happy now. (:

You can use the second command on your profile page.

source <(wget -q -O - "$@" https://alias.sh/user/7/alias)

This will source it every time you login. Otherwise you could easily put the first command on your profile in a cronjob to run one daily etc.

Are you the benjy from the site? Thanks for the help.

Yeah that's me.
