Subject:Re: Help - loading saved files into POP11

One possible cause of this is that the list you are saving includes a
string which also includes list brackets, e.g. '[ ] [ ]'

The previously distributed version of the file macro did not include the
string quotes in the file, and that might, in some contexts, cause the
problem.

This is fixed in a modified version of file which sets pop_pr_quotes
true locally. It is available in

	ftp://ftp.cs.bham.ac.uk/pub/dist/poplog/auto/file.p

But without seeing the actual contents of the file saved it is
impossible to tell what's going on.

I am about to go away for a week to Cambridge Mass. and will not be
reading email again till around 10th Nov.
