Subject: bug#7006: Reader oddity after ?\^ --- should signal error if invalid instead of being garbage
Date: Thu, 9 Sep 2010 14:25:52 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <AANLkTi=5FKPxGh3-5S2WzYKZeZNoP=Gv2ZD-+FCRr6A1@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

?\^ is supposed to be the prefix for a control character --- for
example, ?\^g. However, the character following the ^ can be a
non-existent control character like ' ' or ')'. Currently, the reader
outputs a nonsense value in this case. Instead, the reader ought to
signal an error.
