Description: '
When I am typing a lisp expression to TTYIN and try to use the ?= keyboard command to get a function''s arguments, sometimes I miss the "=" and hit ? <cr>.  I get something like the following on my screen':'
'
(MyFunct ?   '
		↑	←(MyFunct'
'
with the caret positioned where the ↑ is on the next line below the ?.  Is this supposed to mean something, or is it a bug?'
'
/Mitch.'


Workaround: 

Test Case:  Type (SETA ?<cr>   pretend you forgot the "=".
