ALIAS devicealias

      Specifies an alternate name for the given device. If an alias is specified, it must be used in subsequent references to avoid automatic open. Following are descriptions of what an alias can be:

      • Any word that is not a keyword
      • Any valid filename
      • Any string of words enclosed in double quotes, for example:
        "CD Player"
        
      If a string is used, any leading and trailing blanks are ignored and internal blanks are preserved. Uppercase and lowercase can be used, but an alias is case insensitive.
