01/06/96 version 0.40 (never released)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
o added redirection and piping support!!! (see redir.c and command.c)
o fixed a stupid pointer problem in where.c that was causing LOTS of
problems in the strangest places...
o added day of the week support to prompt.c (oops, that was already supposed
to be there! :)
o fixed and reorganized the EXEC code!!! Thanks to Svante Frey!
o reorganized command.c and internal.c to handle parsing internal commands
more efficiently and consistently.
o changed the behavior of MD, CD, RD to work without spaces (e.g. CD\DOS)

(e.g. DIR only pauses if you're not doing redirection)
01/17/96 version 0.50
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Version 0.40 was never released because I was home on Christmas vacation,
and I couldn't upload it. By the time I got back to school, I had the
LOADHIGH patch from Svante Frey, so I decided to jump up to 0.50 without any
release of 0.40... - Tim Norman
o LOADHIGH/LOADFIX/LH support added!!!! Many thanks go to Svante Frey!
o bug fixed in command parsing that didn't handle / switches correctly...
o removed debugging output from history.c
