      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
