If the array is declared as: static const char * const _aliases[] = { "", NULL}; then the compiler warns about const qualifiers being discarded. This is because the `aliases` member of `struct command` is declared as `const char *aliases;`. Change the declaration of the `aliases` member of `struct command` to `const char * const *aliases;` so that it can point to a `const` array of `const char *`. Also change the declaration of the `aliases` variable in `register_command()` to avoid unnecessary type casts.
