I see no reason not to add `chmod' as an alias.  After introducing a new
command `set-file-modes' last year, I can't remember its exact name,
so I still change modes the old way (going to Dired and typing M)
because this takes less time than trying to find the name of a new command.
An alias `chmod' will allow me and other users to use this command.
