hang on dan, ~ moves you one char to the right.  think about 10dd

the implementation of ~ was to peek at the character you're sitting
on and then push back on input:

    rCl

where C is the character in the other case.  the count gets lost due
to the 'loop' and the pushback iirc.

what a hideous disaster.  goto fonfon ...
