 echo.Usage:
-echo.	alias name=full command
+echo.	alias [/reload] [/d] [name=full command]
+echo.     /reload  Reload the aliases file
+echo.     /d       Delete an alias (must be followed by the alias name)
+echo.
+echo.	If alias is called with any parameters, it will display the list of existing aliases.
+echo.	In the command, you can use the following notations:
 echo.	$* allows the alias to assume all the parameters of the supplied command.
 echo.	$1-$9 Allows you to seperate parameter by number, much like %%1 in batch.
 echo.	$T is the command seperator, allowing you to string several commands together into one alias.
