Format:
set alias <keyword>
alias set <keyword>
alias edit <keyword>
alias show [keyword]
aliases [keyword]
unalias <keyword>

The 'aliases' and 'alias show' commands will show you a list of all your
current aliases. You can also see what each alias is by giving its
keyword, for example 'alias show nuke' to see your 'nuke' alias.

The 'unalias' command deletes an existing alias.

Aliases can contain more than one command. To begin setting an alias,
use the 'alias set' command, for example:

alias set nuke

Once you've started setting the alias, you'll be prompted to enter
commands into the alias, one line at a time. Simply type in the
commands you want for the alias, and when you're done finish the
alias with a '/done' command on the last line.

To edit an alias, use the 'alias edit' command. For example:

alias edit nuke

Note that aliases may invoke other aliases, but cannot invoke themselves
recursively. The number of aliases that may be set is dependent on
character level. Aliases may also take and pass around arguments. See
'help alias args' for more information.

== Alias Arguments ==

Up to 9 arguments may be used in aliases, each space delimited. Inside the
alias, arguments are referenced by using $1 through $9, with $0 and $* both
representing all arguments. Additionally, a 'shift' command is available
inside aliases to shift higher arguments down to lower ones.

Here is a sample alias 'healtwo' that takes arguments:
say I will now heal $*
cast heal $1
shift 1
cast heal $1

The first line says all the arguments that the alias is invoked with.

The second line attempts to cast heal using the first argument as a target.

The third line shifts the arguments left by one. This means that the second argument now becomes the first.

The fourth line attempts to cast heal using the first argument as a target, but since we shifted the arguments it will not hit the same target as the second line.

== Alias Comments ==

Comments can be added to any line of an alias using the '##' separator.
For example:

get ae45 pocket ## this is a comment, ae45 is the uuid of my sword

Any text after the '##' is ignored.

== Useful Aliases ==

Some aliases you might find of use.

=== 'Any Set' Saves Gear ===

Some players will have a piece of equipment they would like to use regardless of whatever set of equipment they are in. Some examples might include:
Boots of Speed
Any other Perma-spell Item (often [[infravision]], [[water breathing]], [[Haste]])
Equipment with very high Saving Throws

You will be taking advantage of the 'remove -(location)' function as well as [[UUID]]s.

You may want to use Boots of Speed in almost every set when taking down powerful mobs.

A quick example for Boots of Speed. You will replace the (Speed UUID) and (Container UUID) with the actual UUID of your items (remove the parentheses), which can be seen via the [[insult]] command.:

alias = f04

remove -boots
get (Speed UUID) (Container UUID)
wear (Speed UUID)

A simple alias to switch back to whatever boots you were wearing.

alias = f05

rem (Speed UUID)
put (Speed UUID) (Container UUID)

wear all

Another example for saves equipment. Perhaps you have two pieces of wrist, and one piece of leg equipment with really high fire saves:

alias = firesave

rem -wrists ##Removes both pieces of wrist equipment
rem -legs

put all container

get (Bracer1 UUID) (Container UUID)
get (Bracer2 UUID) (Container UUID)
get (Leggings UUID) (Container UUID)

wear all

I would recommend using [[eqset]]s to switch back to your main sets from these multiple-piece equipment aliases.
