Console chokes on comment with ill formed string
[1/3] from: greggirwin::mindspring::com at: 31-Oct-2001 14:07
Does anyone know why the console chokes when you enter something like this:
>> ; ignore "this string
** Syntax Error: Missing " at ; ignore "this string
If the string is inside a comment, why does it care? Executing the same
thing outside the console works fine. Is it something for feedback?
How did I discover this you ask? Well, I was pasting some stuff into the
console for testing, made some changes and ended up with a bad string in a
comment. WHAMMO!

I'd send it to [feedback--rebol--com].
