There have been some changes recently to the behavior of the RETURN key in the IDE. By and large these changes have been improvements, but there is a small lingering bug: when RETURN is pressed with the cursor at the end of a listener buffer and there's a form to evaluate, the return character does not self-insert. As a result, if you PRINC something instead of PRINTing it, it ends up on the same line as the form being evaluated, which is a little weird. The problem is particularly evident when doing an apropos:

Welcome to Clozure Common Lisp Version 1.4-dev  (DarwinX8664)!
? (apropos :foo) HI::FOO
GUI::FOO
CCL::FOO
    :FOO,  Value: :FOO
? 

To reproduce:

1. build and launch the IDE
2. Press the ESC key
3. Press any other key

Result:

Error: value NIL is not of the expected type STRUCTURE.

While executing: (:INTERNAL GUI::keyDown:|), in process Initial(0).

Type :POP to abort, :R for a list of available restarts. Type :? for other options.

After exiting from the breakloop, the IDE remains confused, expecting a keydown and breaking on any it receives.

When I do (setq x 0) (loop (setq x (+ x .00001)) (format t "~%~8,2e" x)) I pretty soon see lines of varying width such as

1.169E-2 1.7E-2

and I wonder if that can be right. From the ANSI:

The full form is ~w,d,e,k,overflowchar,padchar, exponentcharE. ... Exactly w characters will be output.
