geometry and comands

["Mr. R.J. Morris " <rmorris at uxb.liv.ac.uk>]

Hi again,
	Is it posible to read in comand files interactivly
(ie from the Files panel). It seems that some comands you can
and others you cant. For instance the following file

-----------------------------------------------

(new-geometry cop1 { : pig1 } )
(read geometry { define pig1
{

-----------------------------------------------------------
doesn't show much when read in via the Files menu. However
if the first two lines are changed to
(new-geometry { cop1

then things work fine!

	any coments
