-Allows us to sidestep a variety of issues that aren't being maintained

-
-We also include some default settings adjustments as per recent
-development on the fork:
-
-- sticky mode is still turned on by default but now activates when
-  a using the `ll` repl command.
-- turn off line truncation by default to avoid inter-line gaps when
-  resizing the terimnal during use.
-- when using the backtrace cmd either by `w` or `bt`, the config
-  automatically switches to non-sticky mode.
