Nothing.  This is a professional software development group.  We
frequently have to get into each others' code. More relevant, we
have to get into code written by people long gone. We have to write
knowing someday, someone else will come along to fix a bug or add a
feature or whatever.

We use macros all the time.  Good clear macros are valuable.  K00ky
macros don't make the cut, nobody even tries.

>> alias ll='ls -l'

People do whatever they want in their login file. It's stuff others
will have to deal with that matters.

Simple, clear stuff like that definition are fine.  Confusing stuff
isn't.

Maybe I should try to slip something like that loop macro in my next
reviewed code and see what others have to say about it....
