   Sample of a commandPrompt function.  This commandPrompt replaces the
   standard ">" prompt with a more long-winded prompt for the first few
   turns, then reverts to the normal prompt.  Note that the normal prompt
   is always displayed after one of the parser questions, since the extra
   preface text wouldn't make a lot of sense in those cases.
