I'm quit new to linux, but I thought I remembered seeing something a
while back about some way of defining default flags for various system
commads.

What I'm aiming for is to be able to set it up so that executing
$ ls

by default runs
$ ls --color -F

but with the same theory applied to a bunchh of commands.

Any help is much appreciated. Thanks!
