<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.
