Aliases are commands you can write to send a complex phrase by typing a single word.

To create a new alias:

- Click on the "+" button. You'll see a new untitled entry in the list of aliases.

- Double-click on the line of the new entry. The area will turn into a text entry field, and you can type a new name for the alias.

- Enter the shorthand command you want to use in the Command text field.

- In the Script text area, type the text you want Cantrip to send when you enter the alias. Note that the text will be sent as a complete command to the MU*, instead of being put in the Input Area.

To delete an alias, select it in the list, and click the "-" button. To turn it off temporarily, uncheck the checkbox for that alias.
