$0 technically means "everything after the alias itself goes in this spot".
If you wanted to specify specific arguments you could do that by using
$1 $2 and so on.
So, as an example, if you wanted to reverse the order of item and
material when crafting from:
forge create links iron
to instead be
fc iron links
you could enter:
alias set fc
forge create $$2 $1
/done
Note that this is generally a pointless alias. It's better not to do
such things because there's an increased chance of confusion when
interacting with others, though it serves as a decent example for
illustrative purposes.

I think you can also use alias remove "alias name" to delete an alias.
So for example, alias remove jfg.
Also, thanks for explaining how to type commands that aren't combat or
equipment related. I never thought of using an alias to do things like
finding guild jobs.
But one question: What is the 0 actually for? What argument would that
replace in the jfg alias, for instance?

Enter the commands you want the alias to execute. Use $0 to fill in
arguments.
Enter /done when finished and /help for instructions.
So, for example, to type jfg <guild> for job find guild, do:
alias set jfg
job find guild $0
/done
To delete an alias type unalias <alias>

Try putting anything in that's not a word on the first line and the
alias set command freaks out. I wanted to use jfg for job find guild
and jfh for job find humter and jfp for job find priest and couldn't
enter or save any of them. Do these aliases need saving in a .tin
file outside of alteraeon proper?
