In most of the places I've worked the systems are very locked down and many are running Solaris Unix or AIX, so downloading libraries or compiling stuff from the web is not an option unless you want to be walked out, so using aliases like this is far more useful than z or goto (excellent tools! But only an option @ home).

How locked down, you ask? My office defaults you to ksh and the only way to change that is to have exec bash in my .profile
