Oh, yeah, I see! This is not possible, because the REPL editor is strictly line-oriented, and stores the input as three separate lines. > Is there a way to edit the second line, even though all the three > lines could be accessed as one big line, such as: > : (while (gt0 n) (dec 'n) (prinl n)) What I do in such a case is to press Ctrl-E to go directly on the history (with 'vim' by default), and change it there. As it is only three lines here, you can also to it in three steps: First go up three lines and hit Enter (re-execute the first line). Then go up three lines again, modify the line, and execute it. Finally, again go up three lines, and re-execute that last line. Or - and this is what I usually do - avoid spreading a command over multiple lines, and go with a long command line. This is the fastest, though certainly not the most readable ;) ♪♫ Alex -- UNSUBSCRIBE: mailto:picolisp@software-lab.de?subject=Unsubscribe
