Description:	syntax, the Byzantine quoting rules, the failure to export all
Description:	variables into the environment) were reworked, and the temptation
Description:	to add superfluous features was strongly resisted.  This is Byron
Description:	Rakitzis's version of rc that is portable between many versions of
Description:	UNIX and is largely compatible with Duff's design.
