for the Mac OS. This isn't anywhere near complete, and is wrong in a few
important regards, but I think it's heading in the right direction.

Filenames are represented as a FSSpec, which is converted to and from an
alias record ('alis' resource) when saving and loading sessions.
.
It might be an idea to allow in-core Filenames to contain alias records too,
so that they can refer to directories that don't exist on the current system,
but that requires Filenames to be dynamically allocated, which is likely to be
a pain.

we're going to be a security program, we can at least make a token
effort to use the most secure local X auth available! And I'm still
half-tempted to see if I can support it for remote X servers too...

This introduces a new front-end function, do_scroll(), which is expected to
scroll a part of the physical display and cause repaint events for any
areas that couldn't be scrolled (e.g. because they were hidden).
scroll_display() is a wrapper around this which also updates disptext to
match.
Currently, scroll_display is only used in response to user scrollback requests
(via term_scroll()), but extending scroll() to use it as well should be
easy.
All of this is conditional on the front end's defining OPTIMISE_SCROLL, since
only the Mac front end currently implements do_scroll().

This doesn't include any mkfiles.pl glue, and is missing one or two other
fixes. The terminal emulator is kind of working, though, as, I believe, is
the store module. Everything else is yet to be done.
