"""Variant on standard library's cmd with extra features.

To use, simply import cmd2.Cmd instead of cmd.Cmd; use precisely as though you
were using the standard library's cmd, while enjoying the extra features.

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
Optional _onchange_{paramname} called when environment parameter changes
Parsing commands with `optparse` options (flags)
Redirection to file with >, >>; input from file with <
Easy transcript-based testing of applications (see example/example.py)
Bash-style ``select`` available

Note that redirection with > and | will only work if `self.stdout.write()`
is used in place of `print`.  The standard library's `cmd` module is
written to use `self.stdout.write()`,
