removed the need for p-string routines, so they were removed. Also
removed alloc256/free256 and associated data structures.
In removing calls, found instances in pwd & prefix commands and prompt
handler where current directory name was assumed to be < 256 characters;
recoded to use a flexible buffer size.
Updated and expanded mmdebug.asm routines that perform error checking on
memory management calls. Added macros ~NEW and ~DISPOSE that invoke either
the real or debug routines.
Fixed call to read $TERM variable's length to fix PR#81.
Removed echo of data when setting value of $< in expandvars (expand.asm).
The characters are echoed as they are typed and do not need to be reprinted
on stdout after carriage-return is typed.
Added error checking to the various flavors of prefix (just like cd):
- Verify 2nd parameter is a valid directory before setting.
- Verify 1st parameter < 32 before displaying or setting.
* When ~ is parsed and next character is a delimiter, make sure contents
of expanded $HOME match the user's delimiter.
* When wildcard patterns don't match, rather than terminating the command
gsh now prints "No match: <pattern> ignored" and passes the command line
minus the unmatched patterns on to be executed.
* Modified echo command so it doesn't add a blank to the end.
* Make "clear" and "source" built-ins non-forked commands. Unforking
"source" allows prefixes to be set in files that are sourced.
* Add loop to parse a single command (removing leading whitespace) before
sending it off to be expanded and executed. Skip null lines and comments
at this level. This allows later commands that depend upon variables set
in the 1st command to work; e.g.: set t_num=1 ; echo "Test number $t_num"
Also fixes problems seen when tab was first character of multiple lines.
* Initialize environment variable flags at startup (for echo, nodirexec,
nonewline, noglob, nobeep, pushdsilent, term, and ignoreeof). Set
flag when env var is set in upper or lower case (formerly, only worked
with lower case).
* Lots of places two-word addresses are incremented using inc, without
checking for overflow into the high-order word. As these are discovered,
they are changed to use adc on both words.

Added direct-page/stack data segment of size 2048 to main.asm. It is
initialized to be filled with "?" characters, so that it can be examined
to see how much space is actually being used.
and link. However, it does not work yet and thus still needs work.
The *.asm files have had the following common changes:
- 'keep' lines were eliminated
- the 'mcopy' now takes the macro from the /obj/gno/bin/gsh
directory. This is in anticipation of having the macro
files generated from a single source file; there is a large
amount of duplication. For the moment, the makefile merely
copies the old macro files from the "M" directory to the
/obj/gno/bin/gsh directory.
- start each file with a dummy routine so that the source
code winds up in the *.o rather than the *.root file.
- added the 'setcom 60' directive; there were many source
lines that were otherwise getting truncated.
The makefile is a complete rewrite.
