Task Shell - A companion application to Taskwarrior

There is a companion application to TaskWarrior called tasksh (Task Shell).
This is a front end wrapper to the main program. Now there is no need for prefixing every command with 'task'.

It also has a powerful "review" command which is not available in the main program. With this each individual task in the list can be reviewed with all details visible and also edited(vi is called).

I was able to build this on my debian-jessie-armel VM. I copied this over to my PW3 and it worked OK. I had to copy over 2 more libraries: libreadline and libtinfo. Also, this application expects the main program to be available in the same directory. For this, I added a export PATH command. I also dropped the 'ld-linux' method and used an export LD_LIBRARY_PATH command instead.

EDIT 25-Jul-17: Works OK on KT3 too! Needs the same libraries as in PW3.

The ports of both taskwarrior and this companion shell need some more work to make them a kindle user-ready package. There seems to be a differing set of library requirements depending on the kindle model and framework version.
