Thanks for the reply.

There doesn't seem to be any such demarcation.

The strange thing is that some still are working. Also, if I enter the
complete path to an executable whose alias is NOT working, the
executable works!!!!  Reentering the alias statement in .bashrc does not
restore the function.

Going out on a limb here -- is there specific point in your alias list
where things stop working (e.g. the 5th alias is OK, everything after
stops), or is it that aliases 1,3,7,and 9 all work, but 2,4,5,6,8 are
non-working?
