80 	 * In historic vi, 'u' toggled between "undo" and "redo", i.e. 'u'
81 	 * undid the last undo.  However, if there has been a change since
82 	 * the last undo/redo, we always do an undo.  To make this work when
83 	 * the user can undo multiple operations, we leave the old semantic
84 	 * unchanged, but make '.' after a 'u' do another undo/redo operation.
85 	 * This has two problems.
86 	 *
87 	 * The first is that 'u' didn't set '.' in historic vi.  So, if a
88 	 * user made a change, realized it was in the wrong place, does a
89 	 * 'u' to undo it, moves to the right place and then does '.', the
90 	 * change was reapplied.  To make this work, we only apply the '.'
91 	 * to the undo command if it's the command immediately following an
92 	 * undo command.  See vi/vi.c:getcmd() for the details.
93 	 *
94 	 * The second is that the traditional way to view the numbered cut
95 	 * buffers in vi was to enter the commands "1pu.u.u.u. which will
96 	 * no longer work because the '.' immediately follows the 'u' command.
97 	 * Since we provide a much better method of viewing buffers, and
98 	 * nobody can think of a better way of adding in multiple undo, this
99 	 * remains broken.
100 	 *
101 	 * !!!
102 	 * There is change to historic practice for the final cursor position
103 	 * in this implementation.  In historic vi, if an undo was isolated to
104 	 * a single line, the cursor moved to the start of the change, and
105 	 * then, subsequent 'u' commands would not move it again. (It has been
106 	 * pointed out that users used multiple undo commands to get the cursor
107 	 * to the start of the changed text.)  Nvi toggles between the cursor
108 	 * position before and after the change was made.  One final issue is
109 	 * that historic vi only did this if the user had not moved off of the
110 	 * line before entering the undo command; otherwise, vi would move the
111 	 * cursor to the most attractive position on the changed line.
112 	 *
113 	 * It would be difficult to match historic practice in this area. You
114 	 * not only have to know that the changes were isolated to one line,
115 	 * but whether it was the first or second undo command as well.  And,
116 	 * to completely match historic practice, we'd have to track users line
117 	 * changes, too.  This isn't worth the effort.
