* `diff()` forces the unified format for `diff(1)`.
* `ed()` tries to get verbose error messages, a prompt, and a Readline
environment for `ed(1)`.
+* `env()` sorts the output of `env(1)` if it was invoked with no arguments,

* `gdb()` silences startup messages from `gdb(1)`.
* `gpg()` quietens `gpg(1)` down for most commands.
* `hgrep()` allows searching `$HISTFILE`.
