$alias can be used to return the filename of the Nth loaded alias file. If you specify a filename, it returns $null if the file is not loaded; otherwise it returns the file's name.

Parameters[edit]
NThe Nth alias file you want to check. If N is 0, this will return the total number of alias files currently loaded.
