I'm almost a total newb. I have a trigger that feeds me when I'm hungry but that's all I can manage.
What I need is a alias that'll take my potions from my cloud bag when i throw them. But I don't know how to make aliases well, if at all.
Please help me...

Aliases aren't hard. Just pick a name for the alias; this is what you will type when you want to use it. Then put the commands you want it to perform. %1 to %99 give you a way to refer to the first ninety-nine parameters (usually words) after the alias's name, without having to know what they are. Any parameters not used within the alias script are appended to the end of the final command.

Command Line
#AL tp {get %1 cloud;throw %1}

Editor
Name: tp
Value:
get %1 cloud
throw %1

Usage is the same either way.
tp potion-name [target]
tp is the alias name
potion-name is the first word (parameter) after tp. Use "potion name" if you need two or more words.
target is where to throw it. It's optional.

I've tried to find a way to get away without quoting multiple word parameters. I can't find a way. Is there any way to force an alias to use everything following the name as the first parameter, without having to quote it all?

#ALIAS do {#var all {%-1};#echo @all}
#VAR all {}

Will capture everything
The { } let Zmud know you want to get it all not just append
