As at baseline
createAlias(containerStr, nameStr)
This creates a new alias of nameStr in the designated container at path containerStr. If successful, the operator returns the path of the newly created alias. If a unique, nameStr can be a $Name but will more likely be a $Path value.
Important. Note that the alias must be created in a container other than the container that holds the original note.
Example:
var:string vNewAlias = createAlias(/path/to/Acontainer,"Foo"); The result is that an alias of the note 'Foo' is generated at path /path/to/Acontainer/Foo.
