+       Improve command name completion in readline.
+       
+       * read-line.c (readln_initialize): Set up readline to only break
+       words for completion at new-line.  That way we can complete a
+       whole command name.  Also, set rl_attempted_completion_function
+       instead of rl_completion_entry_function so we can disable
+       completing on file names, which is usually not what we want in
+       PSPP.

+       Improve the way we handle the various parsing "states".  Until now
+       we've hard-coded the state transitions in the command definition
+       file, but that's error-prone and, worse, it's redundant--we can
+       figure out what state we're in anyhow.  We can cleanly handle
+       INPUT PROGRAM and FILE TYPE with a nested command-processing loop.
+       
+       * automake.mk (src_ui_terminal_pspp_LDADD): Move libui earlier to
+       avoid link errors.
+
+       * main.c (main): Handle new CMD_* results.
+       (execute_command) Move most per-command actions into cmd_parse().
+       (handle_error) Removed.  cmd_parse() handles command failure.

        Finish reforming error message support.  In this phase, move
