10 The Listener

10.1 The Prompt

The prompt has the following format:

current package history number >
The current package part names the current package.

Note: The special variable *package* contains the current package name.

The history number part is the number of the event in the history list. In the case of the current prompt, this is the number the event assumes in the list once it has been evaluated.

If what is typed is not recorded -- for example, some listener commands do not register in the history list -- then the history number remains the same as before.
