  ```bash

  source ~/.gam_aliases

  ```

* `go get -u github.com/ademozay/gam`

#### Samples

* Create an alias (First parameter is alias name, value is the rest)

  `gam gitlab ssh admin@10.0.8.13`

* Update an alias (First parameter is alias name, value is the rest)

  `gam gitlab ssh admin@10.0.8.14`

* Delete an alias

  `gam -d gitlab`

##### TODO

- [ ] Source bash in current session. (Find a way to find the right startup script(`~/.bashrc`, `~/.zshrc`).
