title: ZSH not recognizing my aliases?
body: <p>Using iTerm2 with zsh and it isn't recognizing my aliases. Sometimes I have to work in an IDE and can't just easily vim something and the stupid people thought it a good idea to name their applications like MyReallyLongApplicationName.app and since .html files open by default in browsers, I have to:</p>
  
  <pre><code>open -a MyReallyLongApplicationName.app something.html
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have an alias in my .zshrc like:</p>
  
  <pre><code>alias ide="open -a MyReallyLongApplicationName.app"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But zsh won't recognize my aliases. I tried another one just to see if it was me but none of the aliases I create are recognized. Just get "zsh: command not found: ide" or whatever.</p>
  
  <p>So I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong and I've been searching around all day trying to fix things in zsh and the like. As a note, I'm not a pro at Linux/Unix systems so if you're too technical and vague I probably won't understand what you're telling me.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
