OK, I've got back to my windows box. Here's how it goes...
Here is my test file:
-------------------------------------
NB. my usual definitions ...
print=: ](1!:2)2:
enter=: [:". 1!:1@<&1:
enter2=: [:". 1!:1&1:
prompt_char=: [:1!:1[:1:](1!:2)2:
prompt_numb=: [:".[:1!:1[:1:](1!:2)2:
test=: monad define
print'enter something for enter '
a=: enter''
print'enter something for enter2 '
b=: enter2''
c=: prompt_char 'enter characters '
d=: prompt_numb 'enter numbers '
a;b;c;d
)
---------------------------------------
Here's how it runs as expected under j64-701:
load'test'
test''
enter something for enter
4 17.3 _2.8e14
enter something for enter2
4 17.3 _2.8e14
enter characters
4 17.3 _2.8e14 abc
enter numbers
4 17.3 _2.8e14
+---------------------------------------------------------------+
?4 17.3 _2.8e14?4 17.3 _2.8e14?4 17.3 _2.8e14 abc?4 17.3 _2.8e14?

JVERSION
Engine: j701/2011-01-10/11:25
Library: 7.01.083
Platform: Win 64
Installer: j701a_win64.exe
InstallPath: c:/users/jph/j64-701
==============================================================================
Here's what happens on the same machine under j801:
JVERSION
Engine: j701/2011-01-10/11:25
Library: 8.01.008
Qt IDE: 1.0.3
Platform: Win 32
Installer: j801 beta install
InstallPath: c:/users/jph/j801
load'test'
test''
enter something for enter
4 17.3 _2.8e14
Upon entering the above line,
J is greyed out and a message
appears:
jqt.exe has stopped working
Windows can check online for a solution to the problem.
-> Ckeck online for a solution and close the program
-> Close the program
The same thing happens when running directly in the window:
load'test'
a=. prompt_numb 'Enter some numbers'
Enter some numbers
7 _8 2.3e7
Upon hitting return, J crashes as before.
Any ideas as how to diagnose this problem. Otherwise j801 works
and is quite snappy.

This is off topic, but on this machine (MacBook Pro), I get
JVERSION
Engine: j701/2011-01-10/11:25 build: Feb 6 2011 16:16:29
Library: 8.01.008
Qt IDE: 1.0.3

Yet I still have issues with j801 on this Mac.
Viewmat does not work (nothing displayed) and plot
still invokes Acrobat to display graphs. But on
the Mac, "enter" does work:
enter
[: ". 1!:1@<&1:
a=. enter''
3 77.77 3e25
a
3 77.77 3e25
Right now I just would like to solve the windows
problem, since everything else seems to work on
that platform.

I tested it ok. Can you provide a script to reproduce
the crash?
What is the output if you type
JVERSION

February 6? As I said, I did a clean install a few days
ago, and on my system, it's not fixed.
