A negative return code generally means "no such command".  If a command or
macro yields a negative return code, the command is redisplayed on the
command line.  One has to either clear or edit the command line to remove
this.  The locate command will do this also if a target isn't found (rc=2).
I want to generally suppress this redisplay in an Xedit application.  How?
