A 'bind' acts like a custom command for a key. It runs the assigned text as a script, which can contain a single-word command, statement, or script. | |||
Aliases do not have any parameters and will run the command, statement, or script verbatim. If for example, an alias named 'bob' is set to 'echo', it will always run exactly 'echo' which will print nothing, even if you run 'bob "some text". Here the second parameter was ignored. | Aliases do not have any parameters and will run the command, statement, or script verbatim.
