Posts merge if you double post within just a minute or two, as long as no one else has posted after you. It basically treats a double post as an edit to the first post.

I was going for a triple maybe later ;-))

STOP TRYING TO FAKE OTHER LANGUAGES !!
QB64 is already well on its way of faking other languages. With the sort-of preprocessor it has. That was my proposal. Then it would be the programmer's choice if he/she wants to dress up BASIC like Python or something else.
`ALIAS` might have to become `$ALIAS` instead. Otherwise the name is confusing. Another BASIC straight out uses `TYPE` but it's not reasoned as part of preprocessing, which is interesting.

I would not be opposed to WITH, if and only if, the QB64PE IDE included a command to auto-fill in the explicit variable name in a selected code block. Because I personally don't like reading through code inside a WITH - it's easier for my brain to visualize what's happening by seeing the actual variable name.
I like Steve's alias suggestion, as long as we don't go crazy with it, and start adding all kinds of complicated things (aliased types, etc.)
Just my own personal preference!

Just don't make it so long or shorten it when you are working in a sub or function where the work gets done.
Type areallyridiculosulylongUDTthathasaridiculouslynamedtype_type
x as long
y as long
end type
dim thevariabelewithareallyridiculosulylongUDTthathasaridiculouslynamedtype(100) as areallyridiculosulylongUDTthathasaridiculouslynamedtype_type
....
addtoX 12, thevariabelewithareallyridiculosulylongUDTthathasaridiculouslynamedtype(i)

sub addtoX(N as long,v as areallyridiculosulylongUDTthathasaridiculouslynamedtype_type)
v.x=v.x+N
end sub
