<h2>alias - Define or display aliases</h2>
<strong>Synopsis</strong>
<p><strong>alias [ -p ]</strong> [ <em>name</em> [ <em>=value</em>
] ... ]</p>
<p><strong>Description</strong></p>
<p>The <strong>alias</strong> utility defines an alias <em>
name</em> that has the specified <em>value</em>. If only
<em>name</em> is specified, <strong>qsh</strong> displays the name and
value of the alias.</p>
<p>When no arguments are specified, <strong>qsh</strong> displays a
list of all the aliases and their values.</p>
<p><strong>qsh</strong> defines these default aliases:
<ul>
<li>float='declare -E'</li>
<li>functions='declare -f'</li>
<li>integer='declare -i'</li>
</ul>
</p>
<p><strong>Options</strong></p>
<dl>
<dt><strong>-p</strong></dt>
<dd>Precede each line of the output with the word "alias " so it is
displayed in a re-enterable format.</dd>
</dl>
<p><strong>Operands</strong></p>
<p>Each <em>name</em> specifies an alias in the current
environment. If a <em>value</em> is also specified, then the value
of the alias is updated.</p>
<p><strong>Exit Status</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>0 when successful.</li>
