Understanding Aliases

[Alanrf]

This question arose after reading the response to the thread Folder access

When I checked Configuration / Manage Aliases I got the following pre-set options;

c, d, e -    giving direct links to the root of the respective drives, if they exist.

n -           allowing the use of Notepad to open a specified file

cu, lm -    giving direct access to two useful hive locations.


The remaining two options appear to link to some unidentifiable folder/ file

g -           "@3146babb..."
p -           "0dafc203..."

Unlike the preceding entries, they do not give any clue as to their usage.

I know I could easily enter the alias in the MC command line but, being of a cautious nature, I really do like to know where I may be going; where do the "g" and "p" aliases lead? 

If I try them am I going to do some unexpected, and unwanted, to my computer?

Alias only expand a commands for the command line field. instead of writing a long command there you can create an alias for a shot command.
and @<GUID> are Ids of UserDefinedCommand so see what command you have that match that command.

Thank you for your quick reply - much appreciated.

Apologies for my oversight in not further investigating the information available. 

As I have not, as yet,  created any of my own commands I had overlooked point of actually opening the Configurations / User Defined Commands.Thoughtless of me - wasting your time on such a small point.
