I don't think it good practice to develop code in ijx, and use ijs only
for storing the code. This might work for trivial code fragments but
would quickly bog down for larger systems.

The J IDE makes working with scripts pretty easy. Project Manager can
organize them, and a click of the Test button, or running a test script
from a programmed function key, can save all open scripts, then run your
application. That all open scripts can be automatically saved makes it
crash-proof. The debugger can then let you step through the function you
are working on.

I believe that time spent learning the IDE will be quickly repaid in
improved productivity. At least, you don't have to reinvent the wheel.
