"ll" may not be the best choice of default alias - it's pretty common for people to already have it aliased to "ls -l" (or -la, or -lah, or whatever their preferred default flavor), especially for the type of power users this is targeted toward.

I realize this is a bit of a moot point since the user can always change the alias, but it's generally better UX if the default is something most people will use.

I know about it, but I didn't have an 'll' alias so i picked it just to be consistent with 'rr'. If you wish you can configure the aliases in the install.sh file (if you decline to overwrite an existing alias it asks you to type another one) :)

I agree, the ll alias would be the first thing to change for me.

Agreed as well. Seems like 'lh' would be a better default (unless that defaults to something else I don't know of).

Agreed, but If created an alias that didn't eventually collide with another I would be shocked!
