Having a disassembler for the status and display commands in the control 
terminal would be nice.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create a breakpoint
2. Hit breakpoint
3. Press n

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Should step, instead hangs.

This would be nice to have and self-contained but I am unlikely to do it. Note 
that things like breakpoints are factored out so they don't know anything about 
the register set, etc.

It would be possible to change rfp.cpp so it opened a telnet port instead of a 
serial port and then allowed a GUI program that looks like a front panel to 
connect. This could use the same RFP protocol (which is documented).

Having an assembler for the control terminal would be nice.

If you set a breakpoint on, say, "pc" it does not get shifted to upper case in 
all cases.

Plan is to only include this from the control terminal.

Need better error checking on user input.

For example, most numeric inputs will accept letters and just use 0.
