I wanted to emulate gdb's "ptype" command, so I tried:
alias ptype print -type

fhpd responds:

(fhpd) alias ptype print -type
Error: unrecognized option '-type'

fhpd did let me do:  alias ptype "print -type"
I found this much less intuitive.  I'd prefer the first formulation.

Also, once I did that, ptype still did not work:

(fhpd) ptype
Error: Unknown command: ptype

I dug a bit and found that CLI.java does not actually do anything
with aliases.
