[REBOL] Re: Weird error message...

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...

Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn
from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their
apparent disinclination to do so.
