   RTFM! An excerpt:

     Built-In Commands
	Built-in commands are executed within the  C  shell.   If  a
	built-in  command  occurs  as  any  component  of a pipeline
	except the last, it is executed in a subshell.

	:         Null command.  This command  is  interpreted,  but
		  performs no action.

	alias [ name [ def ] ]

Not in the man page in Umax 4.3 which is directly derived from 4.3 BSD.

RTFM indeed!
