Dynamic alias creator for system Windows.

##Features

  • execute program in fork, or in current command line
  • custom static invoke arguments

##Alternatives:

  • DOSKEY: This doesn't work outside command line
  • Shortcuts (*.lnk): doesn't work for CMD

##Requirements:

  • python
  • folder with script in system PATH (can be auto-installed)

##EXAMPLES: ####1) Register this script as new alias with name 'alias':

python C:\path\to\alias.py add alias python C:\path\to\alias.py

####2) Register notepad with alias 'n':

python C:\path\to\alias.py add n notepad --fork

or if you already registered this script as an 'alias'

alias add n notepad --fork

Now in any place you can just type:

n text.txt

###And it will work! Please note that --fork is important in this case. It will allow to invoke notepad and do not block console. In most cases this is useful for GUI applications.
