Dear Debian users,
Some old systems insists you type 'ls' and do not provide an alias do 'dir'.
I loved this behavior.
How can I make debian squeeze honor 'ls' again, and print a funny
message to those who try to type 'dir'?
I've look for a clean way to disable 'dir', but found nothing on

Dear Clive, dear Tom,
Thanks for your time!
The solution:
mudafct() { find . -name "*" -mtime -$1; }
alias muda='mudafct'

reboot, just typed in a terminal and it worked great!)
Thanks both,
Beco.

:~$ alias muda='find . -name "*" -mmin `echo -$1`'
:~$ alias muda='find . -name "*" -mmin $(echo -$1)'
:~$ alias mud

recompile or anything. Just keep the system updated via s
