Email aliases are alternative email addresses, except when email is sent to an alias, it still arrives in your main inbox. Use them in conjunction with filters and folders as a powerful way to organize incoming messages.

PCWorldWant a tidier inbox? Start using email aliases. Here's howHow to set up email aliases for newsletters, receipts, and more.

Today I learned how to create a Finder alias using AppleScript and the command line:

```bash
$ osascript -e 'tell application "Finder" to make alias file to posix file "/opt/homebrew/opt/emacs-plus@29/Emacs.app" at posix file "/Applications" with properties {name:"Emacs.app"}'

alias file Emacs.app of folder Applications of startup disk
```

This is for the particular case of creating an Emacs.app named alias at the Applications folder for the Homebrew version of the `emacs-plus` package, but changing the paths above will allow you to create arbitrary Finder aliases from the command line.
