I have two comments about the new zwgc and zwgc.desc.
1) zwgc.desc should not run zmailnotify as the default; it should
just print "you have new mail." Running zmailnotify as the default
will hose the servers, and most people don't need that information.
2) The new zwhc.desc language is TOO DAMN COMPLICATED! There needs
to be a translator (either built in or external) that translates the
present .zephyr.desc file to .zwgc.desc, because the present language
is far easier to use (even though it is much less powerful.)
