How does one have mpw invoke System 7.0 aliases?

I want to be able to put aliases to my favorite apps into
my MPW tools folder and be able to invoke them as an MPW 
tool. For example when I put an alias to resedit into my
tools folder I get

	### MPW Shell - File "resedit" is not executable.

Any ideas on how I can get this to work (without placing
the actual application in the {commands} path)?
