alias
     
        1.  a name, usually short and easy to
        remember and type, that is translated into another name or
        string, usually long and difficult to remember or type.  most
        command interpreters e.g. unix's csh allow the user to
        define aliases for commands, e.g. "alias l ls -al".  these are
        loaded into memory when the interpreter starts and are
        expanded without needing to refer to any file.
     
        2.  one of several alternative hostnames with
        the same internet address.  e.g. in the unix hosts
        database /etc/hosts or nis map the first field on a line
        is the internet address, the next is the official hostname
        the "canonical name" or "cname", and any others are
        aliases.
     
        hostname aliases often indicate that the host with that alias
        provides a particular network service such as archie,
        finger, ftp, or world-wide web.  the assignment of
        services to computers can then be changed simply by moving an
        alias e.g. www.doc.ic.ac.uk from one internet address to
        another, without the clients needing to be aware of the
        change.
     
        3.  the name used by apple computer, inc. for
