* Patch to add a new helptext command. Thanks, John Daley.
* Move the stdin reopening hack to rc.c, so it is done only if a rc file
was read from stdin. Reverted the earlier change, so it opens /dev/tty
again. This will break on non-unix98 pty systems (linux without /dev/pts),
but at least it will work better than the old thing, which did not work at
all.
