Dear Juergen,

I wasn't using --noRL.  Perhaps that was the problem.  Using SVN 457 I get:

$ apl --noRL

After that, I get a lot of debug output along with each keystroke.

Hi Blake,

1. seems to work on my machine (SVN 455, with or without readline installed):

2. fixed in SVN 456 (for readline, already worked for --noRL)

3. also seems to work as of SVN 455.

Please make sure you use --noRL because the current default mode (use readline if installed)
will disappear soon. If you like cursor up/down then you will like it in ∇-editing mode (--noRL mode only).

Feedback for revision 453

1.  x←⍞

returns without waiting for a user response

same for x←⎕ but when I tried again ⎕ worked.  Something wrong here.

2.  I really liked up-arrow and down-arrow cycling through previous input.  Will we regain that?

3.  Where are the line numbers?

      ∇test

      dfg

      sdfgh

      sfgh

Thanks!
