Only 24x80!  What a loss!  I can't live with that few.  Get more than
two emacs windows on the screen, and you've only got 5 or 6
lines/window.  As long as you're dreaming, what's wrong with 40 or 60
lines?  Think big!

I find the csh history mechanism, together with the 'redo' alias (lets
you edit the last command in your fav editor) totally sufficient to deal
with mistakes in typing, and it's so much more powerful - you can repeat
and modify previous commands as well, even if they have scrolled off the
screen.
