 If you're using Bash as your shell, the 'type' builtin command will tell
you.  E.g.,
 $ type ls
ls is aliased to `ls --color=auto'
 

Ah, yes. I knew about "type", but I don't use it. I will now.

l is aliased to `ls -alF'
cer@Telcontar:~> type ls
ls is aliased to `_ls'
cer@Telcontar:~> type _ls
_ls is a function
_ls ()
{
     local IFS=' ';
     command ls $LS_OPTIONS ${1+"$@"}
}
