1 year ago the alias option just replaces an token with a bunch of other tokens,... need to add a test for that.
the 'aliaslist' option slurps up the remaining tokens and does a search and replace on that.
e.g. aliaslist: zero one two
replaces %0 with zero, %1 with one %2 with two
both alias and aliaslist should be tested and documented,... or perhaps just removed,...
hmm,... probably better to just remove them since they are kinda stupid.
apparently the alias option is supposed to slurp up the remaining options and do command line substitution.
this is broken.
perhaps instead it should exactly slurp up the number of arguments used in the expansion ?
