What happened to my message box?

[Howard Bornstein]

Lol, no, no, the message stack is there. I can use the other panes of it,
such as the global variables, the pending messages, etc. It's only the
single and multi-line messages sections that don't work. They are visible
and I can enter commands into the message field. However, it simply doesn't
respond to Return or Enter to actually execute the messages for some weird
reason.
