-* Fix memory leak related to aliasrun(). Precmd, Cwdcmd etc. leak memory.
-
-* Fix migrate -site $$... Seems to hang... (aix370)
-
-* Fix history in loops.
-
-* New idea.
- Lots of people seem to like the idea to be able to do sed type
- operations on shell variables. Maybe we can extend the syntax
- of the variable editing to understand string operations.
- So I would like to be able to use:
- > set a="this is a STRING"
- > echo $a:[3-]
- is is a STRING
- > echo $a:[#]
- 16
- > echo $a:[6-7]
- is
- > echo $a:[-2]
- ng
- > echo $a:[-20]
- Subscript out of bounds.
- > echo $a:[2-20]
- Subscript out of bounds.
- > echo $a:[1-1]:u$a:[2-].
- This is a string.
-
-* Fix pipelines that contain builtins so that they behave correctly.
- I tried to fix that (most of the code is in sh.sem.c, but it works
- only for non POSIX machines cause otherwise the setpgid() I added
- fails).
-
-* Fix the correct code... How to do that involves A.I....
-
-* Rewrite the whole thing. It has taken to much beating over the years...
-
-* Add another hook like precmd to be executed after the prompt but before the
- command.
-
-* Add instructions for using configure in the README file.
