Because I really want one single definition which could work on every system
I'm using.

I don't like copy/pasting things, and just changing bits of the code, if I can
avoid it.

And this is not only for aliases. I'd like my shell scripts in general to be
able to run in whichever PC I'm on, be it Ubuntu or Windows.

Best regards,
  Seb
