Thread: Aliases Problem

-

my aliases file giving error when log in. here's exact text of error.

code:
-bash: /home/jon/.bashrc: line 13: unexpected eof while looking matching `''  -bash: /home/jon/.bashrc: line 14: syntax error: unexpected end of file
and here's what's in aliases file.

code:
# server aliases file    # edit bashrc alias file  alias aliases='pico .bashrc'    # go level  alias ..='cd ..'    # print "execution sucessful!" terminal  alias sucessful='echo execution sucessful!    # speedtest download  alias speedtest='curl -o /dev/null http://speedtest.wdc01.softlayer.com/downloads/test100.zip'
i've tried everything, short of deleting , starting over, , figure out what's causing this.

help!

you seem missing closing single quote on end of 'alias successful...' line (line 10). error shown @ later line, because bash reads first quote on line 13 closing quote previous alias, ergo last alias line read nonsense.
