Using a proxy would help some. Anyone want to run one? (Incidentally, if
you're using Perforce over a slow line, running a local proxy server is a big
help!)

Also, I've put some limits on the size of commands people can run for now, so
you might need to type:

p4 sync devel/... grimoires/devel/... etc. etc.

rather than just 'p4 sync'.
