- Update to 4.2:
  * New or improved syntax files for the following languages: 
	* Dockerfile
  * Usability Enhancements
	* The top Google help searches for JOE include:
		* How do I save and exit?  The startup copyright notice
		  has been replaced with basic help for beginners
		* How do I dismiss the region highlighting?
		  Changed to Ctrl-C will do it.
		* How do I close all files and exit?  Now Ctrl-K Q does this.
	* Restyle the help screens.
	* Remove time and "Ctrl-K H for help" message from status bar. 
	* Add ^KH for help to search and replace prompts.
	* Provide aborthint and helphint options
	* Enable -noxon by default (disable ^S/^Q flow control).
	* Document ESC X (command prompt) in the help screens.
	* "joe --help" now prints all command line options.
  * Other Enhancements
	* Tags search now tries to find the tags file in parent directories
	  if it does not exist in the current directory and if the TAGS
	  environment variable was not set.
	* Built-in calculator can now print and accept numbers in binary,
	  octal and engineering formats:
		__dec__	12_345
		__eng__	12.345_0e3
		__bin__	0b11_0000_0011_1001
		__oct__	0o3_0071
		__hex__	0x3039
	* Built-in calculator now prints and accepts separating underscores
	  for clarity.

	* Enhanced calculator statistics functions:
		* __dev__ computes standard deviation with full population
		* __samp__ computes standard deviation with sample of population
		* Linear regression analysis.  Select a region of x
		  and y values, then:
			* __lr__(x)   provide estimate of y given x
			* __rlr__(y)  provide estimate of x given y
			* __Lr__, __lR__, __LR__: log, exponential, power regression
	* Calculator region functions now assume the entire buffer if no
	  region is set.
	* Tab completion now works at the calculator prompt (and in all
	  prompts which allow numeric input, such as ^KL- go to line).
	* Make new regex engine (from JOE 4.1) more compatible with the
	  classic engine.  \\y is now shorthand for \\(\\.\\\*\\), so that it does
	  what \\\* did in the old engine.  Also:
		* \\. no longer matches newline.
		* \\\* matches shortest match, not longest match.
	* Add -left and -right options to control the amount scrolling when
	  the cursor moves past the left or right edge of the screen. 
* Bugs fixed
	* Fix use after free bug which shows up as a crash in OpenBSD
	* Fix bug where indent step value was not shown on ^T menu
	* Fix bug where setting margin doesn't work on big-endian systems
	* Fix issue where highest valued unicode character equivalent was
	  not translating to its corresponding 8-bit character.  Effect
	  of this was that Delete key was not working in shell windows in
	  ASCII character set.
	* Standard deviation calculator function was not producing correct
	  results.
	* Allow koi8r and koi8-r for KOI8-R in joe_getcodeset (which is only
	  used if there is no setlocale).
	* Guess_crlf forced UNIX line endings for new files even though
	  crlf was set.  Now crlf is left alone if guess_crlf can not
	  determine the line ending.
	* If cursor was at end of a long line and you switched to hex dump
	  display mode, then hex dump was scrolled.  Now scroll offset is
	  reset when you switch to hex display mode.
