[climacs-devel] #\Page etc.

Some of the most fun lisp (and other) files to look at/test Climacs with 
contain #\Page characters. A quick fix for having them display is to 
treat #\Page (and, while we're at it) #\Return characters as #\Spaces. 
Simply change the #\Space ecase in the handle-whitespace defun of your 
favourite syntax(es) to (#\Space #\Page #\Return), and you too can see 
classic files in Climacs!

Notes:

1. This is certain not The Right Way, but it seems to work in the 
interim. Displaying (presenting) a ^L or #\Page would be better...

2. The characters that satisfy whitespacep on sbcl are #\Space, #\Tab, 
#\Newline, #\Page and #\Return.
