lyntin 4.1 snapshot

I'm kind of winding down on 4.1 development and changes.  The current
snapshot of what's in CVS is here:

http://www.bluesock.org/~willg/dev/lyntin/lyntin40-04292004.tar.gz

The following changes have happened since 4.0 released:

 * fixed lots of bugs:
    * fixed bug with datadir and automatic loading of .lyntinrc file
    * fixed bug with logger in prompt detection mode
    * fixed onetime actions
    * 18n fix for input encoding in tkui
    * fixed regex action trigger escaping
    * fixed #unload so it removes the module from our list of
      imported modules
    * fixed setup.py script
    * fixed #read to ignore blank lines in command files (use #cr
      if you want to send a carriage return)
    * fixed user interfaces so they can be anywhere on sys.path

 * fixed overuse of get_engine()
 * added a new cursesui
 * added tab completion to tk and curses user interfaces
 * optimized usage of filter_mapper style hooks
 * overhauled most of the managers removing unused methods/functions,
   simplifying the code, and making some fixes
 * moved variable storage from the VariableData objects to the Session
   object
 * adjusted global variables so they can be removed using the #unvariable
   command
 * enhanced the #@ command to behave more like the python interpreter
   command line

The code is definitely faster and we have a working cursesui now.  Those
are probably the biggest changes.

Any bugs, comments, suggestions, and such should be sent to the mailing
list.

Depending on how this snapshot goes and how much time I get to work on
net module bugs, I'm looking at a 4.1 release in a week or two.  Using the
snapshot and reporting bugs will definitely help the quality effort
significantly.

Rock on!
