[Request] An alias that can redirect program output to /dev/null
Author Summary
OrganToast is in request
Post Body

So I often append &>/dev/null when running a program from the terminal as I find the messages annoying, and I tried

alias quetly='&>/dev/null' 

Then when i ran 'guake quietly' it gave me all the messages. I think there's just something about aliases that I'm just too new to understand. Is there a a way for me to be able to run

quietly guake 

or

guake quietly 

and not get the messages?

This should be quite easy for someone with a little more experience than me.
