`open` is one I use all the time. I love that simple command.

    alias tab='open . -a iterm'
    alias phpstorm='open -a "PhpStorm"'
    alias smerge='open -a "Sublime Merge"'

etc. I use those more than I do the Open/Recents dialogs in the respective apps.

`open -a ...` tab completion has been horribly slow for years because Apple hasn’t updated their completion definition. I replied with a work around on this SO post: https://stackoverflow.com/a/63097652
