Does anyone out there know how to stop DOSKEY echoing the aliases.

For example, I create an alias with the command DOSKEY XT=XTGOLD $1

Then whenever I issue the command XT, DOS echoes (XTGOLD) on the next line.

This can be turned off in programs like ALIAS but I can't find any
reference to it in the DOS5 manual.
