[Sbcl-help] Question about (yes-or-no-p) in sbcl

[Joshua S. <sk...@pd...>]

Hello,

I've been developing an application in common lisp and I noticed that 
with emacs + slime whenever (yes-or-no-p) is called I get this output:

^G
(yes or no)

I assume that ^G is a symbol for new line for calling in sbcl at the 
command line gives:


(yes or no)

with the ^G replaced by a blank line.
Is it a standard thing for (yes-or-no-p) to be preceded by a blank 
space like this?

Thanks,
Josh Sklar
