Re your two questions of May 23:
1) It has long been a feature of MACLISP that <cr> is a classed
as a "control-character", and hence invisible (unless "slashed")
to the SYMBOL parser.
2) As for display-style rubout processing - there is some problem
in that TOPS-20 does not provide a general protocol for cursor
control on "glass" terminals. Probably the best thing to do is
to use RDTTY for input which will allow rubbing-out to be done
by the 20X system, but which will likely require (SSTATUS LINMODE T).
