The Lispm version of this command is fussier about how the tags
files ends that the TAGS pgm and Visit TAg Table command on AI.
In particular, the Lispm version blows up unless the tags files
ends with exactly <cr>^_<cr>. The AI version accepts an EOF
anywhere.
Are you saying it will not handle output from the :TAGS program, or just that
it didn't like something you generated manually? The former is all that is
guaranteed.
I also doubt that it works right in most cases anyway, since the file system
does not provide file input without rubouts treated specially.
