## Aliases
**navi** doesn't have support for aliases as first-class citizens at the moment.
However, it is trivial to create aliases using **navi** + a few conventions.
For example, suppose you decide to end some of your commands with `:: <some_alias>`:
```bash
% aliases
# This is one command :: el
echo lorem ipsum
# This is another command :: ef
echo foo bar
```
Then, if you use **navi** as a [shell scripting tool](shell_scripting.md), you could add something similar to this in your `.bashrc`-like file:
```bash
navialias() {
navi --query ":: $1" --best-match
}
alias el="navialias el"
alias ef="navialias ef"
```
If you don't want to use these conventions, you can even add full comments in your aliases:
```bash
navibestmatch() {
navi --query "$1" --best-match
}
alias el="navibestmatch 'This is one command'"
alias ef="navibestmatch 'This is another command'"
```
