    Release 20241111.
    
    * Google search: had to filter out reddit and quora, which spam Google's
                     search results that are declining in quality anyway.
                     (I don't want to use anything other than `g' for
                     Scroogle.)
    * Search engines: a query with multiple commas will no longer get cut off
                      after the first one.
                      For example: `g 2,query, using, several, commas' would
                      previously have search for `query' only.
    * Search engines: a space after the comma should work, too.
                      For example: `g 2,  Query'
    * p): renamed to P) (choose another PAGER).
    + T): not documented, similar to P): allow to override $tmp.
    + D): not documented, similar to P): allow to override $B_DOWNLOAD.
