aaah thank you Ben

So after some investigating i added this after the existing code to replace
? for Print in eval_read.c ...

if (EVAL->analyze && op == RS_AT)
op = RS_DEBUG;
Made sense to use AT @ as usually i want to use Debug not Print because i
want to know there the message is "at".
(plus I had no idea how to make it check for double Questionmarks ??)

works a treat converting @ to Debug :)

Thanks again :)
