Error-List for CADR3,band 4,for the record,to check in next MACSYMA-version:

Problems possibly due to LISPM:
-------------------------------
1)Spurious black rectangles occurs on screen (<esc>C converted,or
totally black) 4chars wide, 1-15 high, when displaying large formulas.

2)Various lines not drawn, like in fractions and around matrices.

3)On cadr3, using band 4, one can't do (disk-restore 4): it hangs.

Specific MACSYM-ese bugs:
-------------------------
4)WRITEFILE(); Doesn't work
5)PAGEPAUSE1 Undefined function
6)BATCHLOAD  Undefined function
7)TRUENAME Undefined function <- RESTORE (Use loadfile instead.)

8)Double ^Z required to exit from err in batchfile (1:st ^Z gives new err)

9)Pathological consumption of CONTEXT. Increased 50=>200, still exhausted
by LRICCICOM in program below. Can be increased more but the phenomena
might indicate err.

10)The function METRIC(); in MC:TENSOR;CTENSR FUNCS inserts extra:
(#<DTP-FEF-POINTER ....  POWERX-INTERNAL-G1192> SIMP)
around some sums in numerator.
