cmd2 0.3.5

Extra features for standard library's cmd module

Enhancements for standard library's cmd module.

Drop-in replacement adds several features for command-prompt tools:

• Searchable command history (commands: "hi", "li", "run")
• Load commands from file, save to file, edit commands in file
• Multi-line commands
• Case-insensitive commands
• Special-character shortcut commands (beyond cmd's "@" and "!")
• Settable environment parameters
• Parsing commands with flags
• > (filename), >> (filename) redirect output to file
• < (filename) gets input from file
• bare >, >>, < redirect to/from paste buffer

Useable without modification anywhere cmd is used; simply import cmd2.Cmd in place of cmd.Cmd.
