I have noticed while working on command.c and heap.c that half the functions
pass 'const char *' and the other half pass just 'char *'.  This is a pain
when you have a little helper function like 'is_relation(char *)' and you
want to pass a 'const char *' to it and vice versa.  ie. Compiler warnings -
it's sort of annoying.
