To use the dosio library fully, I also (duh!) have to retain full
...
use of stdio, I can't just go handing fileno(fp) around and expect
that to work. Since this means I need to have sysinstall play pipeline
on single file distributions now, that means I can also finally add a
progress indicator for them.
Change installation instructions to note that there's no dists directory
anymore on CDROMs.

Add shortcuts for addUser and addGroup, documenting same.

Update to benefit from David's recent changes to pw(8). The most

obvious effects are that most of the automagically chosen defaults
will now be displayed while going through the menu, and an improved

Add Joerg's user management screen for David Nugent's pw(8) program, something
...
which will also need to be brought in before this screen will work.
Add some commentary about how the slip startup code is bogus.
Steal Joerg's loop for more properly closing all files and graft it into
the EHS startup. My loop was functional but more bogus.
