CONFIG PARAMETER: flag_alias <alias> <flagname>

The flag_alias configuration parameter defines an <alias> as a synonym for the flag <flagname>.

Examples

 Within a configuration file, flag alias can be used as follows:
   flag_alias a            abode
   flag_alias ab           abode
   flag_alias abo          abode
   flag_alias abod         abode
   flag_alias an           ansi
   flag_alias ans          ansi
 Online, the @admin command can be used,
   @admin flag_alias=aud audible

Server differences

In PennMUSH, flag names and aliases are controlled with the @flag command rather than a configuration parameter. Flags are normally partial-name matched up to uniqueness within applicable object types.
