My favorite alias

Aliasses are most useful tiny little means of making life easy on Linux.
One of my favorites is 'dba'


alias dba='sqlplus "/ as sysdba" @/home/oracle/scripts/login.sql'

with the login.sql:

set sqlprompt "_USER'@'_CONNECT_IDENTIFIER _PRIVILEGE> "


This makes login most simple by typing dba and it looks like:


oracle@server01:~> dba
