Using Aliases

This facility is used to declare an alias - that is, to define a text string that can be used in place of
another text string or a number within any script or expression. The Alias Definitions dialog is
displayed by selecting the "Alias Definition..." option from the Project menu. It can also be
displayed if "Aliases..." is selected from the script editor. The dialog displays either the User
defined aliases or the preset System aliases and is toggled between these two displays by pressing the
User/System Alias button.
The following illustration shows the Alias Definitions dialog displaying a number of User defined
aliases. The System aliases are pre-defined and can not be edited or added to.
Syntax:
@AliasName
