3.1.6-pws-9 available, I hope

[Peter Stephenson <pws@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have uploaded a new development version.  Note the new address, which
will host my own web pages for the foreseeable future.  The good news
is that this no longer depends on my having a particular job, only
on the state of the UK ISP industry.  The bad news is the same :-).

http://www.supanet.com/~pws/computing/zsh-3.1.6-pws-9.tar.gz

Thanks to Bart for keeping things going.

This will be a test of the new setup; seemed to go all right, but
I'm accessing the net via Pictures for the time being --- hope to fix
that in days rather than weeks.  This also means I haven't compared
with the CVS archive, which I shall try to do in future --- and I
shall also be more explicit about alternative patches included,
updated configuration files, etc., so that that can be kept in sync.
However, I still think it's useful to post a snapshot every now and
then.

As far as I can see, the completion stuff is going well.  compinstall
will need to be rewritten:  ideally, it wants to be menu-driven
and modular to allow easy configuration of anything.  Anyone unhappy
with the way things are going had better start posting quickly ---
even if they haven't fully grasped everything (I haven't, yet).

Other things that still seem to be hanging around:
 - spaces in prompts with dumb terminal
 - 80 column display bug
 - cd tidy up

I aim to start writing something for tests.  For standard shell
bits this should be easy enough; I haven't thought about what to do
to test interactive features.

Here are the changes I think I've included.  (Yes, it's auto-wrapped.
All this will sort itself out when I can use dialup from Linux.)
