SaveAlias Version 1.02 1/2/90
Alias Saver for 4DOS
Copyright (c) 1990 by Jason Lin

Purpose :
In 4DOS version 2.11 and up, you can retrieve the alias
by alias's /r command from the aliases file faster than
from a batch file, but you have to maintain the aliases
file always to keep aliases file fresh. It's not a very
pleasing thing to use an editor to edit the aliases
file, especially you need to jump in DOS back and forth
to check you really got every new aliases.
Alias Saver is a utility to save the alias of 4DOS in a
certain file for future use. You can get the alias back
by using 'alias /r <filename>' in Autoexec.bat to
retrieve the alias from the saved file. You don't need
to use a editor to edit the aliases file when every
time you create some new aliases and want to save it.
Operation :
(a) Save alias in file :
There are two ways to use SaveAlias
1. Every time you want to save the new alias, you just
type :
svalias drive:\path\AliasFile
example :
svalias c:\alias\aliases.env
Svalias will save all current aliases in ALIASES.ENV in
C:\ALIAS directory.
2. Create an new alias named SAVE by typing:
alias SAVE `drive:\path\SVALIAS drive:\path\AliasFile`
or
put SVALIAS.EXE in the pathed directory then just type
alias SAVE `svalias drive:\path\AliasFile`
This is a very good way to use Alias Saver because
every time you type 'save' then Alias Saver do the
rest for you.
The aliased in file saved by Alias Saver is alphabetical order
for easy reference.
(b) Retrieve aliases :
put
alias /r <drive:\path\AliasFile>
in your autoexec.bat file
Example :
..........................
... your autoexec.bat.....
..........................
unalias *
alias /r c:\alias\aliases.env
then all the aliases you saved is ready for your command.
