     I find that break windows produced via ↑B don''t behave as nice as'
they used to.  When I interrupt my typing to the EXEC window with a ↑B'
I get a break window just as I should.  But I cannot position the'
caret with the mouse in this break window.  I am unable to backspace'
to a preceding line in a multiple line input in the break window.  If'
I do a ↑B in the break window, instead of recursion I get "Break'
within a break on \SAVEVMBACKGROUND<cr>\SAVEVMBACKGROUND<cr>'
unbroken.help!<cr><cr>(HELP broken)", a "HELP': NIL NIL  break':1"'
window, etc.'

91': The first half of this should have been TTYIN, attn to me; it is now fixed.  The second half has nothing to do with TTYIN': it is "Typing ↑B in a break window gives a "Break within Break" error".  Impact': Annoying, Difficulty': Hard.'
