PRINT EXPR FILE sometimes stalls Android calculator (Actually, PRINT does)
Doing PRINT(EXPR(FILE)) stalls the Android calculator on some files.
I believe a setting may have changed as it used to work.
Warning: the Android calculator requires a virtual Menu/Exit - on and ESC are ineffective. The effect on a real calculator is unknown.
Code:

EXPORT BUGSTALL()
BEGIN
 LOCAL FF:="Programs(""Z_EDITOR_V0_2_RECOVERED"")";
 PRINT();
 PRINT(FF);
 WAIT;
 PRINT(EXPR(FF));
 PRINT("NEVER REACHED");
END;
Examples of files known to cause problems (either using this example code or my Z EDITOR) include the Z editor itself and CONWAY (the cut and paste version).

When using similar code within Z EDITOR, it used to work, but now doesn't.
I have tried virtual Menu/Calculator/Reset, losing all my files, but the problem remains.

Is a better Reset available?
Is anyone else seeing this stall?

[Note: testing Z Editor on itself was done using a different filename - not recursively]
