        If only there were some way to give new names to an existing command. You could call them… Idk, nicknames? Pseudonyms? Or maybe a shorter word that means the same thing.

        Somebody should invent that.

        alias is a command to give nicknames to any other command in Linux

        alias mkfol=mkdir

        So using mkfol calls for mkdir
