zz: Urgent small cleanups / misunderstanding

[Ted Nelson <ted@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Andrew & All:

Due to some misunderstanding, many of the commands
 work with only one window.  This means the directions
 I sent out in January (below) are incorrect.

The following should all work equally with both hands
 and windows: hop, break, new (n and N), connect.
 I'm puzzled at why they were defined only to work
 with right hand / righthand window.

Anyhow, these need to be fixed.  While we can't have
 complete symmetry, we can get as close as possible.
 Because after all, when we have n windows, they should
 be pretty much alike.

So below are the January directions.  Make it so !-)

Best, Ted
