Command: "alias"

  Configure helper aliases for other DFHack commands.

Aliases are resolved immediately after built-in commands, which means that an alias cannot override a built-in command, but can override a command implemented by a plugin or script.


Usage
-----

"alias list"
   Lists all configured aliases

"alias add <name> <command> [arguments...]"
   Adds an alias

"alias replace <name> <command> [arguments...]"
   Replaces an existing alias with a new command, or adds the alias if it does not already exist

"alias delete <name>"
   Removes the specified alias

Aliases can be given additional arguments when created and invoked, which will be passed to the underlying command in order.


Example
-------

   [DFHack]# alias add pargs devel/print-args example
   [DFHack]# pargs text
   example
   text
