New ICBM release pending

[unixronin]

I've made several significant additions to ICBM, and I'll be releasing version 1.3.2 in a few days after a little more live testing.  Major changes in this release are reworked code and hooks for moderatorship changes, the ability to disable autocorrection on a line-by-line basis, and status-line indicators for query-mode and unread server /writes.

I still don't know for certain whether anybody but me actually uses ICBM, though.

This is one of the respects in which I find Getopt::Long irritating at times. It can be quite difficult to get it to do exactly what you want it to do without introducing unwanted side-effects, unless what you want is basic and trivial.

One can certainly use --usage and --man. I think in order to force double-dash for long options, I have to enable bundling, but doing so silently disables auto-abbreviation (a fact which is not documented), and once broken it can't to my knowledge be turned back on.
