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.
