It seems our friends [text] and [/text] aren't feeling well (v.8.8.9 on OSX UTF-8.) Try this in the shell (or not, you must ctrl-c then x to stop it from thinking about whatever it's thinking about so hard):

Watch your processor(s) go nuts till you calm it/them down with the ctrl-c, x caress.



Is [/text] having an argument with [text]? Please talk to them, Lutz, and show them their differences are only syntax-deep ;-)

On my system, the CPU skyrockets as soon as i press return after

It gives me a nice warm glow... (as the laptop starts to warm through... :-)

Yep. Same thing happening here. This G5 hovers at around 1-3% most of the time, so I guess it can handle it ;-)

P.S. I'm working on the next (newlisper) post. Hope to be done by tonight!

... and of course one should never do it. When entering multiline [text] ...[/text] strings interactively enclose in [cmd], [/cmd] tags each on a sperate line:

newLISP v.8.8.0 on OSX, execute 'newlisp -h' for more info.

asf
[/text]
[/cmd]

and then is works also on older versions.
