My tip for problems like these: Always check the autodoc listings
in the RKM, volume 2.  (The autodocs are those tiny-printed, sideways
docs, called Function Summaries, or some such, that are produced
automagically from the source code headers when we make a release).
	There's always the chance * that, in translating the 
(sometimes **) cryptic information from the programmers into English,
small errors (like leaving out the space in the window escape
sequence) creep in.  But the autodocs, not having been through the
translation phase, can often be expected to be somewhat more accurate.
(poof ***)

So always check the function summary...it might save you some time 
and frustration.
