- The listener is created whenever input or output is done on the default
- value of the following streams:
-
- *terminal-io*
- *debug-io*
- *query-io*
- *standard-output*
- *standard-input*
- *error-output*
- *trace-output*
-
- The function BINHEX-TOPLEVEL in the file "ccl:examples;binhex;binhex.lisp"
- illustrates binding *terminal-io*, *debug-io*, and *standard-output* to
- a bit bucket stream to prevent the appearance of the listener.
