# I, Yu-Jie Lin, made a few changes and additions:
#
#   -p, -t, -R, and -C

# I, Devin Samarin, made a few changes and additions:
#
#   -r can be 0 to mean "no limit".
#   Reset cursor visibility after done.
#   Cleanup for those people who want to quit with ^C
#
#   Pushed the changes to https://gist.github.com/4725048
