alias -clear Clears all aliases.
alias -global Show the global aliases.
Substitution variables that exist are:
$# - Where # is the number of the word after the verb to substitute.
$* - Will be substituted with everything after the verb.
Prefixing the alias verb with a $ allows you to set up a verb that does not
require a space after it. i.e. 'alias $' say $*' will allow you to do says as:
'Hey! This is most Stufly!
Look at the default aliases for examples.
Note: $* is added to all aliases, unless was already part of it.
