6.5. The Aliases file
- You will find a file in /spider/cmd/ called Aliases. First, copy this
- file to /spider/local_cmd/Aliases and edit this file. You will see
- something like this ...

+ You will find a file in /spider/cmd/ called Aliases. This is the file
+ that controls what a user gets when issuing a command. It is also
+ possible to create your own aliases for databases and files you create
+ locally.
+ You should not alter the original file in /spider/cmd/ but create a
+ new file with the same name in /spider/local_cmd. This means that any
+ new Aliases files that is downloaded will not overwrite your self
+ created Aliases and also that you do not override any new Aliases with
+ your copy in /spider/local_cmd/. You must remember that any files you
+ store in /spider/local/ or /spider/local_cmd override the originals if
+ the same lines are used in both files.
+ The best way of dealing with all this then is to only put your own
+ locally created Aliases in the copy in /spider/local_cmd. The example
+ below is currently in use at GB7MBC.
+ #
+ # Local Aliases File
+ #
+ package CmdAlias;
+ %alias = (
+ 'n' => [
+ '^news$', 'type news', 'type',
+ ],
+ 's' => [
+ '^sh\w*/buck$', 'show/qrz', 'show',
+ '^sh\w*/hftest$', 'dbshow hftest', 'dbshow',
+ '^sh\w*/qsl$', 'dbshow qsl', 'dbshow',
+ '^sh\w*/vhf$', 'dbshow vhf', 'dbshow',
+ '^sh\w*/vhftest$', 'dbshow vhftest', 'dbshow',
+ ],
+ )
- #!/usr/bin/perl
- # provide some standard aliases for commands for terminally
- # helpless ak1a user (helpless in the sense that they never
- # read nor understand help files)
- # This file is automagically reloaded if its modification time is
- # later than the one stored in CmdAlias.pm
- # PLEASE make this file consistant with reality! (the patterns MUST
- # match the filenames!)
+ Each alphabetical section should be preceded by the initial letter and
+ the section should be wrapped in square brackets as you can see. The
+ syntax is straightforward. The first section on each line is the new
+ command that will be allowed once the alias is included. The second
+ section is the command it is replacing and the last section is the
+ actual command that is being used.
- # Don't alter this file, copy it into the local_cmd tree and modify it.
- # This file will be replaced everytime I issue a new release.
- # You only need to put aliases in here for commands that don't work as
- # you desire naturally, e.g sh/dx on its own just works as you expect
- # so you need not add it as an alias.

+ The eagle-eyed amongst you will have noticed that in the first
+ section, the new alias command has a '^' at the start and a '$' at the
+ end. Basically these force a perfect match on the alias. The '^'
+ says match the beginning exactly and the with similar commands.
+ I have 3 different types of alias in this file. At the top is an
+ alias for 'news'. This is a file I have created in the
+ /spider/packclus/ directory where I can inform users of new
+ developments or points of interest. In it's initial form a user would
+ have to use the command type news. The alias allows them to simply
+ type news to get the info. Second is an alias for the show/qrz
+ command so that those users used to the original show/buck command in
+ AK1A will not get an error, and the rest of the lines are for locally
+ created databases so that a user can type show/hftest instead of
+ having to use the command dbshow hftest which is not as intuitive.
+ This file is just an example and you should edit it to your own
+ requirements. Once created, simply issue the command load/alias at
+ the cluster prompt as the sysop user and the aliases should be
+ available.
- You can create aliases for commands at will. Beware though, these may
- not always turn out as you think. Care is needed and you need to test
- the results once you have set an alias.
