Ideas
=====

*   A wrapper ksw(1df) (kill-switch) that traps SIGINT to kill a called program
    or loop immediately, rather than aborting a loop (is this possible?)
*   A wrapper sil(1df) or nec(1df) to turn stty -echo off for the duration of a
    paste?
*   I can probably share my psql() completions/shortcuts after sanitizing them
    a bit
*   Wouldn't be too hard to add some HTTP BASIC auth to ix(1df) to make pastes
    manageable
*   Have eds(1df) accept stdin with the "starting content" for the script
*   Convert all the manual pages to mandoc maybe? <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mandoc>
*   qmp(1df)--quick man page
*   The solution to chn(1df) not running in parallel is probably backgrounded
    processes and mkfifo(1).
*   Write something like hcat(1df) or tcat(1df) that includes filename headings
    for each concatenated file.
*   I can probably get rid of all that nasty templated shell by writing
    something that wraps around td(1df) and generates shell script to run, and
    calls that via `eval`.
*   The BigFileMeasures() function in .vim/config/bigfile.vim should maybe be a
    self-contained plugin rather than a config subfile.
*   Ideally, the .awk and/or .sed scripts in the bin and games dirs should be
    syntax-checked or linted. I could at least add some patient application of
    appropriate `gawk --lint` calls for each of the .awk scripts.
