I had also noticed this "Faulty alias removed" problem, when you feed it an undefined variable. And indeed this seems to fix it. Provided, that is, I still include the sched part, thus:
sched +0:00 alias postcmd echo -n "'^[]0;!#^G'"
(with backslash before the "!"). Otherwise, opening a new terminal gives me: Welcome to Darwin! echo: No match. Faulty alias 'postcmd' removed. [localhost:~] fz% That still leaves the ls problem open, though...
