These are the showfile commands.  It is not necessary to press -Return-
after these commands.  When a complete command is sensed, it is run
immediately.

In addition to the previous commands, most of the commands from the
directory page are available in showfile.  They include ^, /, !, %,
and A-Z except L and R.  Particularly useful are M and G which allow
new iterations of Make and Grep, !, the escape to the shell, and F,
which allows one to edit any file.

Directory motion commands such as '+' exit showfile mode and perform
the expected directory page motions.

To return to showfile display from Vsh, use 'E' to review the
last .makerror file and 'S' to show the last .grepout file.

Vsh always searches for .makerror in the current directory.  Vsh
searches for .grepout first the current directory, then in your
home directory.

When a line is selected with the e command, Vsh tries to extract
a file name and line number from the line.  As the output
from grep is of constant format, a selection will never fail with grep.
Vsh tries its best with the output of compilers and lint.
