Convert bash aliases into eshell ones.

## Installation

### Manual

1. Download and copy `load-bash-alias.el` into `~/.emacs.d/lisp` directory.

2. Add the following elisp code to your Emacs config:

``` elisp

;; Tell Emacs where is your personal elisp lib directory

(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/lisp/")

;; load-bash-alias

;; https://github.com/daviderestivo/load-bash-alias

(load-library "load-bash-alias")

```

3. Call load-bash-alias-load-bash-alias-into-eshell interactive function to

   convert bash aliases into eshell ones:

```

M-x load-bash-alias-load-bash-alias-into-eshell

```

### Melpa

Add the following elisp snippet to your init.el:

``` elisp

(use-package load-bash-alias

  :ensure t

  :config

  (setq load-bash-alias-bashrc-file "~/.bashrc")

  (setq load-bash-alias-exclude-aliases-regexp "^alias magit\\|^alias oc"))

```

## Customization

The location of your barshrc file can be customized by setting the

value of `load-bash-alias-bashrc-file` variable:

``` elisp

(setq load-bash-alias-bashrc-file "~/.bashrc")

```

In case you want to add more alias files please add them to `bash-alias-additional-aliases-files`. For example:

``` elisp

(setq load-bash-alias-additional-aliases-files '("~/.dotfiles/bashrc_addons"))

```

In addition it's possible to exclude certain bash aliases to be converted into eshell ones simply setting `load-bash-alias-exclude-aliases-regexp`:

``` elisp

(setq load-bash-alias-exclude-aliases-regexp "^alias magit\\|^alias oc")

```
