The output of the PLACES command has an extra newline after it. Using advent.z5 in the demos directory as an example:



ADVENTURE

The Interactive Original

Reconstructed in three steps by:

Donald Ekman, David M. Baggett (1993) and Graham Nelson (1994)

[In memoriam Stephen Bishop (1820?-1857): GN]
Release 9 / Serial number 060321 / Inform v6.33 Library 6/12-beta1 S
At End Of Road

You are standing at the end of a road before a small brick building. Around you

is a forest. A small stream flows out of the building and down a gully.
>places

You have visited: At End Of Road.
>

I see that in the beta library (and in lib 6/12 in the archive), in LanguageLM() in english.h, we have:



  Places: switch  
{
1:  print "You have visited: ";
2:  ".^";
}

while in lib 6/11 in the archive, we have:



  Places: switch  
{
1:  print "You have visited: ";
2:  print ".^";
}

I see minor differences in the 6/12 version of Places1Sub() in verblibm.h:



return L__M(##Places, 2)

when we reach the end of the list vs. the 6/11 version:


{ L__M(##Places, 2); return; }

but nothing that would obviously produce different numbers of newlines beyond what's in the L__M. So, I'm not sure what happened there between 6/11 and 6/12.

Steps to reproduce :
