Yesterday I mailed Syd Weinstein about a bug in ELM 2.2 relating to the
display of the folder directory.  Basically, if you use c to change folder
and then ask to display the directory then on second and subsequent executions
first the help message and then a few other things get screwed up.

When I mailed the message I could not find out what was going wrong.  After a
night's sleep I looked at it again and a C block (ie a pair of braces) 
appears to be missing.  The patch to quit.c is given below.  

I also noticed that there is a redundant declaration of 'helpmsg' in savecopy.c
(not a problem unless you are still running on segmented rather than paged
Unix I think) - no patch for this one.

Otherwise, Elm 2.2 look good - thanks gentlemen.
