Use this to create aliases of variables. The first argument is the new name, the second the old name, and the other arguments are passed on to the variable. Example: If you want to use $alpha instead of ${beta gamma delta} then you have to write the following: alias alpha beta gamma delta . PS: Instead of creating an alias in the config you can also use environment variables. Example: Start conky like this: alpha="beta gamma delta" conky
