Ah, got it.  External commands cannot be used as a command for alias, so
I added it exceptionally.

Lianbo, is this OK?

 
Sorry for the late reply.

This seems acceptable. But I just have one question, please see the comment below.

Subject: [PATCH] Make "clear" external command runnable without "!" and
  alias-able

Make the "clear" external command runnable without an exclamation point
("!") for convenient.  Additionally, make it acceptable as a command
string for alias exceptionally in external commands.

I added the debugging info here:

And I did not see any output information with the string "clear".
The variable 'found' won't be set to 'TRUE' unless it is initialized in the alias_init() such as the "lsmod", right?
 
Other changes are fine to me.

Thanks.
Lianbo
