Ah yes, that's a different bug that I will fix.
Can you open a file with a name that ends with .apl and then define a
function in it which has a newline in it? For example:
*∇foo*
*'a'*
*'b'*
*∇*
Then go to it and press C-c C-c to define it. Do you get the error? If so,
try removing the newline and try again.
Regards,
Elias
