Both. I've isolated the problem: changing the main command from BXQ2
to BCXC removes the problem!!! And BX () also creates the problem.

Yet, a new pgm consisting only of: BX se /test/Q2 works fine with stuff in
the open file.

AND: if a halt the pgm while the cursor is wrongly placed, then hit
cursor-right key, the cursor goes to where it should have been (i.e., two
places after the "hit" word).

Weirdness.
