CSGD: How can I set a save directory for a group that's not the same as the name of the group?

Contributor: Wayne Davison <trn@clari.net>

This requires some environment variable tweaking in the memorized commands
for the group:

&-ESAVEDIR=%p/custom_dir
X&-ESAVEDIR=%p

The first line is executed on entry to the group, setting the default
save directory to ~/News/custom_dir.  The second line is executed on
group exit and sets the save directory back to ~/News.
