Version 5.3(255)-5 incorporates additional features, enhancements and
fixes since the minor release of 5.3(248)-5 in November 2023. These are
as follows and can be identified in the code with the edit number as the
prefix of a comment.
[249] Implement relative directory connect
[251] Emit new directory name when either wildcarded structure or
directory changes
[252] Fix some of the directory parsing logic to properly handle .CMDEV
and .CMDIR
[253] Fix ^A to print the number of pages sent and the total; was always
omitting total
[254] Implement CDUP, generic 'G'
[255] Make CWD accept ".." as token for Unix, DOS, Windows, and OS/2 CDUP

implements this in addition to Tops-20
