Richard Wolff's changes:
cmd.py has incorporated the changes we discussed a couple of weeks ago
(a command queue, returning line from precmd, and stop from postcmd)
and some changes to help that were occasioned because I wanted to
inherit from pdb which inherits from cmd.py and the help routine
didn't look for commands or the associated help deeply enough.
