Well, I'm finally getting around to doing what I promised so long
ago:  the first (of many) scripts has been posted to net.sources.
The mods (once you've collected them all) provide:

o  Subprocess control within Emacs.  ESC-^Z is bound (by newproc.ml)
   to a function which suspends your current job.  There are hordes
   of new functions for this.

o  Support for 4.1 MPX files, and 4.1[ac] network/PTYs.

o  Support for external processes writing to Emacs, instead of directly
   to your terminal.

o  Echo keystrokes and echo argument:  you can get Emacs to display
   key sequences and/or prefix arguments on the minibuf line, either
   immediately or after some number of seconds.

o  Support for the new directory format in 4.1c.

o  Filename completion.  Also supports the new 4.1c format.

I can't think of anything else, right now.  Oh well, have fun; it's
time for me to get some lunch (if McDonalds isn't serving breakfast...).
