Here's my .profile:

alias 'seti =3D cat /var/db/setiathome/state.sah | grep prog'
alias 'dir =3D ls -Fl'

Questions:
1) My aliases don't work. Why?
2) When I make a change, let's say to the aliases, I don't know of any =
other way for it to take immediate affect unless I log out and log back =
in again. Is there a command approach to this?
3) Is there a good tutorial about environment settings and other issues =
such as the ones I'm struggling with?

TIA,

Tamir
