How do you edit/change/addto an already existing alias in elm?
Please email responses, because I usually do not read this newsgroup.

Thank you.

1) Delete it and (re)create it:
	a		jump into alias menu
	<num> | j | k	select the alias to be changed
	d		delete - mark alias for deletion
	$		synchronize (update) alias table
			(deletes aliases marked for deletion)
	n		new alias - create a new alias
	$		synchronize (update) alias table
			[will add the new ("changed") alias to become
			effective]

2) Make changes to the alias file ($HOME/.elm/aliases.text) using your
   favourite editor and then update the hash table with "newalias".
