I've gone back and have reinstalled j801a_win32 once again
on my Windows 7 desktop and now things seem to be working
very well. The jqt ide is quite attractive; plot, viewmat,
OpenGL, etc. all are working. Great.
There is one problem that has cropped up, however, that is
an issue for me. Many of my prograns prompt me to enter
parameters from the keyboard. Since time immemorial I have
used the phrase enter=: [: ". 1!:1@<&1:
I don't know where I got it, but it works in j602 & j701.
Further, even though the dictionary says 1!:1 y with y=1
does not work within a script, it always has.
But in j801 for windows it crashes J. A window pops up
with the message "jqt.exe has stopped working" and prompts
you to close the program.
This crash occurs not only if "enter" is in a script,
but even when it's called directly, e.g.
a=. enter''
(I enter something: crash!)
Is there a way around this? I hope creating some pop-up
form isn't the only solution, as I've got dozens of programs
to deal with.
