+# This module defines the 'alias' rule and associated class.
+#
+# Alias is just a main target which returns its source targets without any
+# processing. For example::
+#
+# alias bin : hello test_hello ;
+# alias lib : helpers xml_parser ;
+#
+# Another important use of 'alias' is to conveniently group source files::
+#
+# alias platform-src : win.cpp : <os>NT ;
+# alias platform-src : linux.cpp : <os>LINUX ;
+# exe main : main.cpp platform-src ;
+#
+# Lastly, it's possible to create local alias for some target, with different
+# properties::
+#
+# alias big_lib : : @/external_project/big_lib/<link>static ;
+#
