Shell Variables & Aliases

You can store information in a shell variable.
- E.g. set work = /home/dcr/Work
To access the info, prepend a dollar sign ($).
- E.g. cd $work
Shell variables are local to the shell; environment variables are inherited by new shells and can even be accessed internally by programs.
- E.g. setenv WORK /home/dcr/Work
