On a similar note, does pts interactive, sleep, quit and source need to 
be in a supergroups ifdef?


I'm looking in src/ptserver/pts.c

#if defined(SUPERGROUPS)

    ts = cmd_CreateSyntax("interactive", Interactive, 0,
                          "enter interactive mode");
    add_std_args(ts);
    cmd_CreateAlias(ts, "in");



interactive modes seems useful even without supergroups, what gives?
