If you can enter a command transparently, you can also enter its alias
transparently. When you enter the command alias, the full command name
is displayed at the command prompt and the command is executed.
You can create command aliases that include the special hyphen (-) prefix,
such as those listed here, that accesses the version of a command that displays
command prompts instead of a dialog box.

BD, *-BOUNDARY
NOTE You cannot use command aliases in command scripts. Using command
aliases in customization files is not recommended.

Record and Modify Action Macros
Action macros can be used to automate repetitive tasks by recording a series
of commands and any values entered.
Overview of Action Macros
You use the Action Recorder to record an action macro. After an action macro
is recorded, you save the recorded commands and input to an action macro,
which has the file extension ACTM.
The Action Recorder is a panel on the ribbon and contains the tools to record,
play back, and modify an action macro. You can also set the preferences for
the Action Recorder from the Action Recorder Preferences dialog box. During
the playback, editing, or recording of an action macro, you can expand the
Action Recorder panel to access the individual actions of the current action
macro from the Action tree.
