Re: call for input, votes

I've marked 407 as a duplicate of 265 -- you'll have to vote for 265
instead of 407. Sorry, age takes precedence in this case.

The runto command is supposed to delete its breakpoint once it is hit.
It utilizes the "expireCount" and "deleteOnExpire" properties of the
breakpoint. The breakpoint must be hit once and then it will be deleted.
If this isn't, it's a bug.

By all means, log bugs.

Is there a URL that I could link to for the ile program? Is it just like
rlwrap?

Thanks for voting.
