One of the most useful tips for improving performance is to create aliases for the programs that you use more often.

I have done this with several:

Notepad++

Git commands

Explorer.exe

cd [most useful directory]

This is easily done editing the ~/.bashrc file using any file editor. Very straight forward, and then you need to charge the source again, using source ~/.bashrc
