Initial import.
Copy of the Python module cmd2 by Catherine Devlin. Note that this is
NOT the official copy (it’s at
http://www.assembla.com/spaces/python-cmd2/wiki ). I’d rather just
work using git + GitHub instead of hg + Assembla. ☺
OTOH, I fully intend to submit changes back to the official repo on
Assembla—so don’t be shy, fork away. I’m happy for any help!
