Confirmed: I can see similar behavior in DrScheme 4.2.5 when I
copy-and-paste in Windows 7:
###################################################################
C:\Program Files (x86)\PLT>mzscheme
Welcome to MzScheme v4.2.5 [3m], Copyright (c) 2004-2010 PLT Scheme Inc.
> (+ 1 2
3)
reference to undefined identifier: M
=== context ===
C:\Program Files (x86)\PLT\collects\scheme\private\misc.ss:74:7
####################################################################
Quick experiment: I opened up a new Command Prompt terminal. Ran
mzscheme, and then wrote the following at the REPL:
> (let loop () (printf "~s\n" (read-byte)) (loop))
I pressed enter. I saw the following:
13
10
which is slightly unexpected, in the sense that I expected the reader
to have already absorbed the carriage-return+newline combination, but
oh well. Then, with my clipboard containing the content:
(+ 1 2
3)
I pasted into the command line console and pressed enter. Here's what shows up:
(+ 1 2
40
43
32
49
32
50
32
13
10
3)
77
32
32
51
41
13
10
The byte stream that's observed by read-bytes is the following:
> (bytes 40 43 32 49 32 50 32 13 10 77 32 32 51 41 13 10)
#"(+ 1 2 \r\nM 3)\r\n"
No clue why "M" is being introduced into the stream. There's
something in the handling of newlines at the Windows console
interactive REPL that is funky.
