[REBOL] Re: Weird error message...

From: joel:neely:fedex at: 7-Nov-2001 1:06

Hi, Maarten, It was a string containing only a long run of newlines. I strongly suspect that there's some internal buffer glitch (an buffer that's not getting cleaned out, a dangling pointer, or some other such thing...) in console input handling or error construction from invalid console input. Just a guess... -jn- Maarten Koopmans wrote:
