[Apologies for delayed acknowledgement.]
It's not possible. The colon in the command line:
pop11 :"readline()=>1 + 1"
or, equivalently,
pop11 ":readline()=>1 + 1"
tells pop11 that it has to treat the quoted string as pop11 code, exactly
as if it had been typed in after pop11 started up -- except for some
setup differences due to occurring in the command line.
To invoke something outside poplog you'd need sysobey, e.g.
: sysobey('date');

Anyhow, there's no readline in my $PATH that could be picked up in error.
And there's no emacs within poplog unless you explicitly use Brian Logan's
emacs addon, provided for people who don't want to learn to use Ved.
$usepop/pop/packages/emacs
Which I don't use: ved is now burnt into my brain (though age is producing
gaps...)
Thanks anyway!
