I recently set up a FreeBSD box with CMUCL and Hemlock on it. I want to use
Hemlock as a Lisp editor, but I'm having a problem that prevents me from
really using it at all. Whenever I load a file using m-x 'editor load
file', it loads the file but automatically attempts to execute the code
which results in corrupting the terminal display. I have the "Hemlock
User's Manual" but so far have been unable to find any reference to how to
fix this problem. Anyone know what I need to do?

at the end of the User's Manual, there is an index. If you look up the
"Editor Load File" command, you'll see that it loads a file into the
lisp process that's running the editor. This is unlikely to be what
you intended.
Opening a file for editing is similar to the procedure in Emacs: say
"C-x C-f" or "M-x Find File" then enter the filename in the
minibuffer.
