+       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
+       message.c into libpspp.
+       
+       * automake.mk: Remove message.c from sources.
+
+Tue Apr 25 10:58:19 2006  Ben Pfaff  <blp@gnu.org>
+
+       Continue reforming error message support.  In this phase, drop
+       actual message printing from core code, substituting a callback,
+       and add the callback to each UI.  Also, move verbose_msg() into
+       its own module.
+
+       * automake.mk (src_ui_terminal_libui_a_SOURCES): Add msg-ui.c,
+       msg-ui.h.
+
+       * command-line.c: (parse_command_line) Call
+       verbose_increment_level() instead of increment err_verbosity
+       directly, now that we have a little abstraction.
+
+       * msg-ui.c: New file.
+
+       * msg-ui.h: New file.
+
+       * main.c: (main) Call msg_ui_init().  Use any_errors().
+       (terminate) Call msg_ui_done().  Make termination order more
+       rational.
+
+       * read-line.c: (readln_read) Use reset_msg_count() now we have a
+       little abstraction.
+
+Tue Apr 25 09:39:46 2006  Ben Pfaff  <blp@gnu.org>
+
+       * main.c: (terminate) Mark static and NO_RETURN.  If called
+       recursively, which can only happen via signal, just exit instead
+       of trying to gracefully shut down.      
+
+Fri Mar 31 10:33:37 2006  Ben Pfaff  <blp@gnu.org>
+
+       * command-line.c: (var pre_syntax_message) -d and -u are no longer
+       supported.

        * automake.mk: Moved the pspp binary here.
