Danik, thanks again, but I found a solution before I saw your last message:

alias mcedit='/mnt/us/local/mc/bin/mc -e'

(before I always tried to do that in /mnt/us/local/terminal which did not work since this was not the executable)

mcedit will complain about missing libraries if you havn't started mc first, the missing lines to avoid these to be added to a start script are
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/mnt/us/local/lib
export HOME=/mnt/us/local/home
export LANGUAGE=cs
