NAME
0alias — create quick scripts to run 0launch
SYNOPSIS
0alias ALIAS [INTERFACE [COMMAND]]
DESCRIPTION
Having to keep typing the full URI for a program each time you want to
run it with 0launch is annoying. 0alias will create a little script in
your PATH to do it for you.
EXAMPLES
A program can be invoked using 0launch:
0launch http://rox.sourceforge.net/2005/interfaces/Edit
To avoid having to keep entering the URI, create an alias:
0alias rox-edit http://rox.sourceforge.net/2005/interfaces/Edit
To run Edit now:
rox-edit
To select a different version, or check for updates:
0alias rox-edit
If an interface provides more than one program, you can specify which
one to use instead of the default. e.g.
0alias svn http://example.com/subversion
0alias svnadmin http://example.com/subversion svnadmin
COMMAND-LINE OPTIONS
-d=DIR, --dir=DIR
Install the script into directory DIR, rather than searching for
a suitable directory in $PATH.
-h, --help
Show the built-in help text.
-m, --manpage
Display the manpage for the alias script given as the single
argument. The alias can be an absolute pathname, or the name of
a script in $PATH. If the argument isn’t an alias script, or if
multiple arguments are given, then all arguments are passed to
the system ’man’ command. This allows you to alias your man
command like this:
alias man=’0alias --manpage’
-r, --resolve
Print the interface URI for the given alias script to stdout.
-V, --version
Display version information.
