That would be good except that I just added 4 new ones trying to figure out
how to remove one. :-) Now there are definately too many. I could
overwrite those with something short, but that's not really what I wanted.
You can't just blank them out, it just show that alias. I'm really lost on
this one. Good thing it's not something that REALLY worries me, I guess.
