Jim: Remember that func DL causes the cursor to move to the line
following the one DeFined. Going up, that causes an endless loop
that keeps putting the cursor back where it was, so that the same
line keeps getting DeFined on successive tries. You have to get
the cursor off the dime. 100=xdpldlpl should do the trick.
