[Help-smalltalk] smalltalk-2.0.5: sticky syntax errors

It is hard for a beginner to get rid of syntax errors.

st> 'Hello' 'Hello2' printNl !
stdin:1: parse error, expecting `'!''
st> 'Hello' printNl !
stdin:2: parse error, expecting `'!''
st> 'Hello' !
stdin:3: parse error, expecting `'!''
st> !

The last line finally unblocks the parser.

Couldn't the parser reset its state when a syntax error is encountered
and the input stream is interactive?
