  command line.

  ALIAS is a command internal to command.com and needs no other file
  in order to work.

  "Alias text=edit"  if you type "text" + ENTER the editor will be opened.
  "Alias text="      the variable text is deleted. If you now type "text", 
                     the editor will not be opened, you will get an error 
                     message: command "text" not found!
