 * Every function in this file has a function header which has the

 *
 *     Name             : name of function
 *     Purpose          : 1 or 2 line statement of purpose
 *     Arguments        : names and purposes of all arguments
 *     Return Value     : what the function returns
 *     Calls            : NON-library functions called by this function
 *                        The name of the function is followed
 *                        (in parens) by the name of the file in which
 *                        the function is defined
 *     Globals Accessed : NON-library global variables/macros
 *                        used and/or modified by this function
 *                        The name of the variable is followed (in parens)
 *                        by the name of the file in which the variable
 *                        is declared (with the keyword "macro" if applicable)
 *     Notes            : Longer statement of purpose, notes on the
 *                        algorithm used, and other assorted information

 *------------------------------------------------------------------
 * This "application" allows you to open various text files with vi(1)
 * from the Browser (or from within IB, etc).  In order for this to work
 * you must have Scott Hess's Stuart terminal emulator.  Stuart is a
 * replacement for Shell, and is Shareware, available from finer ftp
 * archives everywhere.
 * 
 * Vi is a sublcass of Application, which acts as its own "delegate"
 * for handline appAcceptsAnotherFile and app:openFile:fileType:
 * messages.
 *
 * The portions of this program (very little, in fact) that I wrote are in
 * the public domain, and you may do whatever you want with them.

 * Notes            : Builds of the vi(1) command line for fileName,
 *                    fork(2)'s and execl(2)'s soil on that command line.
 *                    Then queue's up a terminate: message.
 *
 *                    Queuing the terminate: message is really a hack,
 *                    and is done because when multiple files are
 *                    launched from the Workspace the app only knows
 *                    about the first one from the command-line, so
 *                    we just keep waiting for the Workspace to tell
 *                    us to open another file or until some timeout
 *                    period has elasped, after which we assume that
 *                    no more requests are coming and terminate.
