Came from your Coderwall. You've avoided a pitfall by breaking the functions into multiple lines for this gist, but the original post is problematic. For the functions you need to add a ; before the closing curly bracket to avoid a syntax error on one-liners. For example, pip_install() { pip install $@; }.

Been a while since I messed around with functions in a bash profile and it took a bit of time to track that down. Thanks for posting the gist -- helpful to simplify routine pip operations ^_^
