   I am wondering if there is an inline editing feature in mush.
What I mean is that sometimes I have typed something, and would like
to go back and edit something without having to delete all consecutive
letters I have typed in.   I use tcsh as my main shell, which acts
something like emacs, hence Control-b will back up one letter
without deleting it.  Control-p which, in emacs, backs up one
line, but in tcsh it yanks back the previous command, and 
consecutive uses of Control-p will yank back the command previous
to that and so on.  Anyway, this would be a nice feature to have.

   I have heard that mush is only being updated for bugs, and
that most of the work has really gone into Z-mail, so I am
not expecting that this will come through.
