16 * Pretty much rewritten to fix numerous bugs and reduce realloc() calls.
17 * Bugs fixed (although I may have forgotten one or two... it was pretty bad)
18 * 1) mixing printf/write without fflush()ing stdout
19 * 2) no check that any open files are present
20 * 3) optstring had -q taking an arg
21 * 4) no error checking on write in some cases, and a warning even then
22 * 5) q and s interaction bug
23 * 6) no check for lseek error
24 * 7) lseek attempted when count==0 even if arg was +0 (from top)
