Gak! How can anyone stand tilde escapes? Yucko!
[On a more serious note...]
For ``mail'', ~ escapes are almost reasonable. After all, it's
collecting input lines, not input characters. But rlogin acts on one
character at a time. Can't we do away with escapes that escape only
after you've hit RETURN?
