i have to compare a number of files and I don't want to change the command in two places all the time. so i want to create an alias in bash.
alias gd='gvimdiff $1 dir/$1'
so that i can get
gvimdiff res.tex dir/res.tex
just by typing
gd res.tex

You cannot use aliases this way, however, you can define a function do to the same thing.
