Oh, here's another interesting bug I found the other day.  Does anyone
else have this problem?  Try typing...

"Declare Paging-files fep0:>page.page fep1:>second.page<tab>"

...where <tab> is a tab character.  The FEP will then spit out an
endless "Error: invalid string" messages.  Nothing short of reseting
the machine from the front panel will stop it.  CTRL-HYPER-FUNCTION,
ABORT, CTRL-ABORT and all of the other reset keys are useless.
