Thanks. While it appears to work, it's clearly wrong. The formatting is
still being done at the wrong place. The way I discovered this is to load
a .apl file from a prior version of GNU APL. When I list the function,
it's wrong. So, GNU APL is depending on the format in the file rather than
having the del editor format it. For example:
)load Utils.apl
