Configuring command aliases
The command alias function allows you to replace the first keyword of a command with your preferred
keyword. For example, if you configure show as the replacement for the display keyword, then to execute
the display xx command, you can input the command alias show xx.
Note the following guidelines when configuring command aliases:
• When you input a command alias, the system displays and saves the command in its original
format instead of its alias. In other words, you can define and use a command alias but the
command is not restored in its alias format.
• When you define a command alias, the cmdkey and alias arguments must be in their complete
form.
• When you input an incomplete keyword that partially matches both a defined alias and the
keyword of a command and the command alias function is enabled, the alias wins. To execute the
command whose keyword partially matches your input, input the complete keyword. When you
input a character string that partially matches multiple aliases, the system gives you prompts.
• If you press Tab after you input the keyword of an alias, the original format of the keyword is
displayed.
• You can replace only the first keyword of a non-undo command instead of the complete command;
and you can replace only the second keyword of undo commands.
