It appears that there is some difference between the readline-enabled reader and the normal one. $ meta/guile -q scheme@(guile-user)> (port-column (current-output-port)) $1 = 21 It is 0 with the readline reader. I don't think the set-port-column! fix is right. Why is the newline not being chomped after the `(read)', I wonder? Andy -- http://wingolog.org/
