THINGS TO DO FOR COMB:

01/19/91	man pages, and an option to install them in Makefile

01/19/91	improved getstr() routine (i'd like to use the same
-		line input routine as in GNU's BASH shell, but i really
-		doubt it's portable enough.  shouldn't be too hard to
-		mimic though.  it's so nice. :)
01/20/91	yeah, added a preliminary 'getst' routine. this one just
-		handles backspace, but i'm gonna add the rest of it too,
-		and have an option in the Makefile to make it permanently
-		resident in your curses library.....mebbe. :)
	
01/19/91	get and interpret results of piped commands.
01/28/91	not as important anymore.  i bypassed a lot of that.

01/19/91	here's a good one:  color support.  too bad i don't have
-		a color monitor. :).  try it anyway, but once again, using
-		shell variables.  this should go in LAST.

01/23/91	curses doesn't let you output ctrl-characters does it?
-		i just noticed that tabs seem to be interpreted as ceol
-		have to write a filter for it.  i also tried to finagle
-		ANSI stuff this way, by outputting escape sequences with
-		addstr.  perhaps i can only do it with putch, but i wouldn't
-		bet on it.

01/29/91	arrow keys and other termcap stuff handled softly, and
		internally.

02/25/91	figuring out what kind of messages they are:
		i.e.:  note if it's a shell archive or uuencode

02/27/91	i'm starting to run low on space apparently.  gotta
		start optimizing this stuff.
