afaik, before 0.43 lists were printed in one line. the current behaviour  
is certainly a bug: if you print the output of a symbol atom, you'll get
"print: symbol

asdfd

"

Also, if you print a message box with [list 1 2 3 4 5(, you don't get the  
"list" class, just the numbers. (divided into several lines, of course)

I've read your sugestion for the printing of lists. I myself think that it  
makes much more sense to print lists in one line. An option to divide into  
several lines can always be made with [drip]. Or, by adding some parameter  
to the print object.
I would myself also like to print something without the name of the print  
object.
