Miniwindows not showing

• Several Options
  1. Load miniwin_tabbar, it will show if a window is loaded
  2. run <plugincmd> objects, find the non help object and then run <plugincmd> <object> show and then <plugincmd> <object> front
  3. V6 and beyond: run <plugincmd> windows and it will show you if a window is hidden or not

whois command over and over, or tabs not showing in miniwin_stats

• set pagesize to 0 or something > 400
• set nopretitle to "You will no longer see pretitles."
• run whois
• run statdb comp to see if the stat db was seeded
