#	op	   the operation (= delete).
#
# Results:
#	none
#
# Side Effects:
#	The implementation of the [::history] command ceases to exist.

# Results:

# Side Effects:
#	Adds to the history list

# Results:
#	Those of the command being redone.

# Side Effects:

#		event, where -1 is the most recent event.
#		A string can be matched, either by being the prefix of a

# Results:
#	The index into history, or an error if the index didn't match.
