I was used to using Maple 9.5 and was forced to use the later version (2016)  due to
bad bugs both in maple (the input line would get all messed up if I altered
something near the beginning of the line) and in GRTensor.  However the new maple is really
annoying. If I load and old maple .mws file, and try to rerun the commands,
the new version sticks in a new Maple line after every line I ran. The old
maple would not insert new empty lines, but place itself on the next line in
the .mws file. Thus if my .mws file had
> grtc();

>qload(`2dconf`);

say as the first two lines, in maple 9.5 if I hit return on that first line,
it would get executed and the cursor would rest on the second line. But in
Maple 2016 if I hit return on the first line, a new input line would get
inserted after it and the cursor would not rest on that new input line. 

>grtc();

>

>qload(`2dconf`);

This means I cannot simply run through the first N entries just by hitting
return, since that would simply land on the second empty input and each time I
hit return I would get yet another empty input line

>grtc();

>

>qload(`2dconf`);

I hope this description is sufficient for someone to know what I am talking
about and tell me how I can stop this dumb new behaviour. If I want a new
input line, I can do it on purpose. I suspect there is some configuration I
need to make the new behave like the old and familiar.
