As Eliot wrote, an interactive environment has different constraint.
#at: is one of them, and $- notation for specifying a character
etc. (say print-it for it should print something) should provide some
workable solution.
I think a future version basically shouldn't try to "print" a
Chararacter, but print out the code point and to display a character,
you do have to supply the extra infomation. (Character object is
convenient, but you can go with all String objects, if you like.)
