There seems to be a bug in the print() function in all recent releases of Maple. print() does not make use of the continuation character when an expression has many closing parentheses:
> `evalapply/e`:=proc(X,Y) op(X)(op(X)(op(Y))) end proc: > expr:=e(e(e)(e))(e)(e):
The output of the following input statement is correct. I have added the continuation
character `\` myself in order to make the output of lprint() more readable.
> lprint(expr); e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e\ (e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(\ e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e\ (e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(\ e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e\ (e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(\ e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e\ (e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))\ )))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))\ ))))))))))
However, when expr is print-ed then many closing parentheses are missing when working with the worksheet interface version of Maple.
> expr; e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e( e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e( e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e( e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e( e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e( e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e( e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e( e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e(e( e(e(e(e(e(e))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
It is correct in Maple V.3 (U. Klein)
