V-WHAT-IS-WAS prints an extra newline

Opened this issue · 0 comments

I'm not sure what the exact purpose of V-WHAT-IS-WAS is, but it's probably used to if the player tries to ask about things that the game doesn't really handle. For instance:like this:

>WHO MURDERED VERONICA
"I don't know anything about that."

However, the way it's written it will print two newlines at the end:

<ROUTINE V-WHAT-IS-WAS ()
	 <TELL-DONT-KNOW>
	 <CRLF>>
<ROUTINE TELL-DONT-KNOW ()
	 <I-DONT-KNOW-ABOUT "that">>
<ROUTINE I-DONT-KNOW-ABOUT (THAT "OPTIONAL" (CR? T))
	 <TELL ,I-DONT-KNOW "anything about ">
	 <TELL .THAT>
	 <COND (.CR? <TELL ".\"" CR>)>>

So that <CRLF> at the end of V-WHAT-IS-WAS should simply be removed.
